“Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.”
Psalms 73:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 73:6
Pride adorns the wicked like a chain (jewelry worn proudly), and violence covers them like a garment (clothing worn daily). Their character traits—arrogance and brutality—are displayed openly, not hidden in shame. They're unashamed of qualities Scripture condemns. This moral inversion, where evil is celebrated rather than mourned, marks advanced cultural decay (Isaiah 5:20). Yet God opposes the proud (James 4:6); their pride ensures eventual judgment.
