Charles Ellicott Commentary Psalms 73:3

"For I was envious at the arrogant, When I saw the prosperity of the wicked." — Psalms 73:3 (ASV)

Foolish. —Better, arrogant.

When I saw. —Perhaps the conjunction is wrongly supplied, and the word “saw” here is synonymous with “envied” in the first clause. (Compare the Latin invideo.)
