They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. They judge not the cause, yet they prosper - Perhaps we might be justified in translating, "And shall they prosper?"
