Psalm 73:6

Verse 6. A chain of pearl doth not better become their necks, nor the richest robes adorn their backs, than sin doth, in their judgments, become and suit their souls; they glory in their shame. Plato saith of Protagoras that he boasted, whereas he had lived sixty years, he had spent forty years in corrupting youth. They brag of that which they ought to bewail. George Swinnock.

Verse 6. Violence covereth them as a garment. They wear it, and shew it openly as their garment. See the like phrase of cursing, Psalms 109:18-19 . But the meek, and godly, cover themselves otherwise, Ephesians 4:24 Colossians 3:10 Colossians 3:12 Colossians 3:14 , etc. John Richardson.
