2Wicked people and liars have spoken against me;
they have told lies about me.
3They have said hateful things about me
and attack me for no reason.
4They attacked me, even though I loved them
and prayed for them.
5I was good to them, but they repay me with evil.
I loved them, but they hate me in return.

For wicked and deceitful mouths are opened against me,
speaking against me with lying tongues.
They encircle me with words of hate,
and attack me without cause.
In return for my love they accuse me,
but I give myself to prayer.
So they reward me evil for good,
and hatred for my love.

They repay me evil for good,
and hatred for my friendship.

for wicked and deceitful mouths
have opened against me.
They speak to me with a lying tongue.
They also surround me with words of hate,
and fight me without cause.
In return for my love they accuse me,
though I am in prayer.
So they inflicted evil against me in return for good
and hatred in return for my love.

For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me:
They have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
They compassed me about also with words of hatred;
And fought against me without a cause.
For my love they are my adversaries:
But I give myself unto prayer.
And they have rewarded me evil for good,
And hatred for my love.
