11By day and night they go round the town, on the walls; trouble and sorrow are in the heart of it.
12Evil is there; cruel rule and deceit are ever in the streets.
13For it was not my hater who said evil of me; that would have been no grief to me; it was not one outside the number of my friends who made himself strong against me, or I would have kept myself from him in a secret place;
14But it was you, my equal, my guide, my well-loved friend.
15We had loving talk together, and went to the house of God in company.
16Let the hand of death come on them suddenly, and let them go down living into the underworld; because evil is in their houses and in their hearts.
17As for me, I will make my prayer to God, and he will be my saviour.
