I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. {a green...: or, a green tree that groweth in his own soil}
The LORD called thy name, A green olive tree, fair, {and} of goodly fruit: with the noise of a great tumult he hath kindled fire upon it, and the branches of it are broken.
I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
For I was envious at the foolish, {when} I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and {that} spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. {drought: or, restraint}
And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine. {shall grow: Heb. shall come up} {new: or, principal} {for medicine: or, for bruises and sores}
It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not be green. {accomplished: or, cut off}
Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; {even} the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low.
