Psalms 73:6

Arrogance is their necklace, ¹  and violence their clothing. ² 

Therefore pride is their necklace; they clothe themselves with violence.

Therefore pride is their necklace; The garment of violence covers them.

They wear pride like a jeweled necklace, and their clothing is woven of cruelty.

Pretentious with arrogance, they wear the latest fashions in violence,

For this reason pride is round them like a chain; they are clothed with violent behaviour as with a robe.

Therefore pride is their necklace; violence covers them like a garment.

Therefore pride serves as their necklace; Violence covers them like a garment.

Arrogance is their necklace, ¹  and violence their clothing. ² 

¹ sn Arrogance is their necklace. The metaphor suggests that their arrogance is something the wicked “wear” proudly. It draws attention to them, just as a beautiful necklace does to its owner.

² tn Heb “a garment of violence covers them.” The metaphor suggests that violence is habitual for the wicked. They “wear” it like clothing; when one looks at them, violence is what one sees.
