I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
My enemies say of me in malice,
“When will he die, and his name perish?”
“When will he die, and his name perish?”
Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words,
while his heart gathers iniquity;
when he goes out, he tells it abroad.
while his heart gathers iniquity;
when he goes out, he tells it abroad.
And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.

Even my close friend in whom I trusted,
who ate my bread, has lifted his heel against me.
who ate my bread, has lifted his heel against me.
Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
But you, O Lord, be gracious to me,
and raise me up, that I may repay them!
and raise me up, that I may repay them!
But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
By this I know that you delight in me:
my enemy will not shout in triumph over me.
my enemy will not shout in triumph over me.
By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
But you have upheld me because of my integrity,
and set me in your presence forever.
and set me in your presence forever.
And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.
