5All the day long they wrest my words:

All their thoughts are against me for evil.

6They gather themselves together, they hide themselves,

They mark my steps,

Even as they have waited for my soul.

they watch my steps,

as they have waited for my life.

They come together to spy on me—

watching my every step, eager to kill me.
