BrLXX Ὁ δὲ Θεὸς βασιλεὺς ἡμῶν πρὸ αἰῶνος, εἰργάσατο σωτηρίαν ἐν μέσῳ τῆς γῆς.

Ps 73 This wisdom psalm examines the injustice of the prosperity of the wicked. The psalmist affirms that God is good to the godly but his own experience differs (73:2-12). Nearly overcome by his doubts (73:13-16), the psalmist meets the Lord in the sanctuary and gains a perspective that stretches beyond his life and renews his confidence in God (73:17-26). His disturbing doubts stir a greater passion for truth. He knows that he can trust God and that God will rescue him (73:27-28).

The Psalmist is using the adjective wicked as a noun in order to describe a group of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with a noun phrase. See how you translated the phrase the wicked in 73:3. Alternate translation: “wicked ones”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
וְשַׁלְוֵ֥י ע֝וֹלָ֗ם
and,at_ease always

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
הִשְׂגּוּ־חָֽיִל
increase wealth
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of wealth, you could express the same idea with an adjective such as “wealthy” or in some other way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “they become increasingly wealthy”
