7 All my enemies whisper together against me;

they imagine the worst for me, saying,

8 “A vile disease has afflicted him;

he will never get up from the place where he lies.”

9 Even my close friend,

someone I trusted,

one who shared my bread,

has turned against me.

10 But may you have mercy on me, Lord;

raise me up, that I may repay them.

11 I know that you are pleased with me,

for my enemy does not triumph over me.

12 Because of my integrity you uphold me

and set me in your presence forever.

13 Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,

from everlasting to everlasting.

Amen and Amen.

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,

Which did eat of my bread,

Hath lifted up his heel against me.

10 But thou, O Lord, be merciful unto me,

And raise me up, that I may requite them.

11 By this I know that thou favourest me,

Because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity,

And settest me before thy face for ever.

13 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.

7 All who hate me whisper about me,

imagining the worst.

8 “He has some fatal disease,” they say.

“He will never get out of that bed!”

9 Even my best friend, the one I trusted completely,

the one who shared my food, has turned against me.

10 Lord, have mercy on me.

Make me well again, so I can pay them back!

11 I know you are pleased with me,

for you have not let my enemies triumph over me.

12 You have preserved my life because I am innocent;

you have brought me into your presence forever.

13 Praise the Lord, the God of Israel,

who lives from everlasting to everlasting.

Amen and amen!

7 All who hate me whisper together against me;

Against me they devise my hurt.

8 “An evil disease,” they say, “clings to him.

And now that he lies down, he will rise up no more.”

Who ate my bread,

Has lifted up his heel against me.

10 But You, O Lord, be merciful to me, and raise me up,

That I may repay them.

Because my enemy does not triumph over me.

12 As for me, You uphold me in my integrity,

And set me before Your face forever.

From everlasting to everlasting!

Amen and Amen.

and think the worst about me.

8 They say, “He has a terrible disease.

He will never get out of bed again.”

9 My best and truest friend, who ate at my table,

has even turned against me.

10 Lord, have mercy on me.

Give me strength so I can pay them back.

11 Because my enemies do not defeat me,

I know you are pleased with me.

12 Because I am innocent, you support me

and will let me be with you forever.

13 Praise the Lord, the God of Israel.

He has always been,

and he will always be.

Amen and amen.

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.

12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity,

And settest me before thy face for ever.

13 Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel,

From everlasting and to everlasting.

Amen, and Amen.

7 All that hate me whisper together against me; against me do they devise my hurt. 8 A thing of Belial cleaveth fast unto him; and now that he is laid down, he will rise up no more. 9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I confided, who did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me. 10 But thou, Jehovah, be gracious unto 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. 12 But as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever. 13 Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, from eternity to eternity!
