10. Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: Iniquity also and mischief are in the midst of it.
11. Wickedness is in the midst thereof: Oppression and guile depart not from its streets.
12. For it was not an enemy that reproached me; Then I could have borne it: Neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; Then I would have hid myself from him:
13. But it was thou, a man mine equal, My companion, and my familiar friend.
14. We took sweet counsel together; We walked in the house of God with the throng.
15. Let death come suddenly upon them, Let them go down alive into Sheol; For wickedness is in their dwelling, in the midst of them.
16. As for me, I will call upon God; And Jehovah will save me.
17. Evening, and morning, and at noonday, will I complain, and moan; And he will hear my voice.
18. He hath redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me; For they were many that strove with me.
