5. Mine enemies speak evil against me, saying, When will he die, and his name perish?
6. And if he come to see me, he speaketh falsehood; His heart gathereth iniquity to itself: When he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
7. All that hate me whisper together against me; Against me do they devise my hurt.
8. An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him; And now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
9. Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, Who did eat of my bread, Hath lifted up his heel against me.
10. But thou, O Jehovah, have mercy upon me, and raise me up, That I may requite them.
11. By this I know that thou delightest in me, Because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
