12 Lord, when I complain to you,
    you always do what is right.
But I must ask you about your justice.
    Why do wicked people have success in life?
Why do people who cheat their friends
    live in comfort?
² They are like trees that you have planted.
    They have strong roots.
    They produce good fruits.
Those people like to talk about you a lot,
    but they do not really love you.
