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.
18In the evening and in the morning and in the middle of the day I will make my prayer with sounds of grief; and my voice will come to his ears.
19He has taken my soul away from the attack which was made against me, and given it peace; for great numbers were against me.
