Contextual Overview
A psalm of Asaph.
God is truly good to Israel, to those who have pure hearts. 2 But I had almost stopped believing; I had almost lost my faith 3 because I was jealous of proud people. I saw wicked people doing well. 4 They are not suffering; they are healthy and strong. 5 They don't have troubles like the rest of us; they don't have problems like other people. 6 They wear pride like a necklace and put on violence as their clothing. 7 They are looking for profits and do not control their selfish desires. 8 They make fun of others and speak evil; proudly they speak of hurting others. 9 They brag to the sky. They say that they own the earth. 10 So their people turn to them and give them whatever they want.Bible Verse Review

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For all the day long have I been plagued,.... "Smitten or scourged" p, as in Psalms 73:5, that is, afflicted of God; which is no ways inconsistent with his love, nor with his covenant, nor with an interest in him, as a covenant God and Father; see Psalms 89:29,
and chastened every morning; not in wrath, but in love, and for good; not with the chastisement of a cruel one, but of a loving and tender father; and therefore not to be improved in such a manner, as if on this account there was nothing in religion; whereas the daily notices the Lord takes of his people this way show his regard unto them, and care of them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For all the day long - Continually. All my life.
Have I been plagued - Smitten; afflicted; troubled. My life has been a life of trial. I have not known prosperity.
And chastened every morning - Margin, as in Hebrew, âMy chastisement was.â That is, my sufferings - my trials - have been repeated with every returning morning. Each new day has brought some new form of affliction, designed to rebuke and punish me. I never have found exemption from trial even for a single day. So different is my lot from the lot of wicked people, who know nothing of this, and who are always prospered and happy. See the notes at Job 7:18.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 73:14. For all the day long have I been plagued — Far from enjoying worldly prosperity, we are not only poor, but we are afflicted also; and every succeeding day brings with it some new trouble.
