Verse 12 is found in chapter 73 of Psalms. Psalm 73 explicitly addresses the crisis caused by observing the prosperity of the wicked. The psalmist nearly abandons his trust because the arrogant seem to live without consequences. The turning point occurs upon entering God’s sanctuary, where he gains a different perspective on their destiny. The psalm concludes by affirming that nearness to God is the true good and that making the Lord one’s refuge enables one to proclaim his works.

Siehe, das sind die Gottlosen; die sind glücklich in der Welt und werden reich.
He aquí estos impíos, Sin ser turbados del mundo, alcanzaron riquezas.
Miren, así son los malvados: siempre tranquilos, aumentan sus riquezas.
Ainsi sont les méchants: Toujours heureux, ils accroissent leurs richesses.
Ecco, costoro son empi, e pur godono pace e tranquillità in perpetuo; Ed accrescono le lor facoltà.
Eis que estes são ímpios, e prosperam no mundo; aumentam em riquezas.
看哪,這就是惡人, 他們常享安逸,財寶增多。
