'Apparent' in the Bible

Wait patiently for the Lord! Wait confidently for him! Do not fret over the apparent success of a sinner, a man who carries out wicked schemes!

And I said, “This is my grief,That the right hand of the Most High has changed [and His lovingkindness is withheld].”

But [in apparent contradiction of all this] You [the faithful Lord] have cast off and rejected;You have been full of wrath against Your anointed.

Your precepts are fully confirmed and completely reliable;Holiness adorns Your house,O Lord, forever.
