“He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.”
The statement that the wicked says in his heart I shall not be moved; he shall never experience adversity suggests the wicked's delusional confidence in permanent security. The mental reservation—said in his heart—suggests that the wicked acknowledges no limits on his power and security. The assertion of permanent advantage establishes that the wicked's confidence appears unshaken and based on empirical reality of continued prosperity. This verse portrays the psychological state of the successful evildoer: absolute confidence in the permanence of his position despite its fundamental instability.
