13. But it was you, a man like me,my companion, and my familiar friend.
14. We took sweet fellowship together.We walked in God’s house with company.
15. Let death come suddenly on them.Let them go down alive into Sheol.For wickedness is amongst them, in their dwelling.
16. As for me, I will call on God.The Lord will save me.
17. Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress.He will hear my voice.
18. He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me,although there are many who oppose me.
19. God, who is enthroned forever,will hear, and answer them. Selah.They never change,who don’t fear God.
20. He raises his hands against his friends.He has violated his covenant.
