An Understanding of the Prosperity of the Ungodly

Psalm 73:13-20

13  Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency. 
14  For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning. 
15  If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children. 
16  When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; 
17  Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. 
18  Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction. 
19  How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors. 
20  As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
