3. The Lord will support him upon the couch of languishing: thou makest all his bed in his sickness.
4. I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
5. Mine enemies speak evil against me, saying, When shall he die, and his name perish?
6. And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity; 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.
