⁹ Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues, For I have seen violence and strife in the city. ¹⁰ Day and night they go around it on its walls; Iniquity and trouble are also in the midst of it. ¹¹ Destruction is in its midst; Oppression and deceit do not depart from its streets. ¹² For it is not an enemy who reproaches me; Then I could bear it. Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me; Then I could hide from him. ¹³ But it was you, a man my equal, My companion and my acquaintance. ¹⁴ We took sweet counsel together, And walked to the house of God in the throng. ¹⁵ Let death seize them; Let them go down alive into hell, For wickedness is in their dwellings and among them.

¹⁶ As for me, I will call upon God, And the LORD shall save me. ¹⁷ Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, And He shall hear my voice. ¹⁸ He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, For there were many against me. ¹⁹ God will hear, and afflict them, Even He who abides from of old.Selah Because they do not change, Therefore they do not fear God. ²⁰ He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; He has broken his covenant. ²¹ The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, But war was in his heart; His words were softer than oil, Yet they were drawn swords. ²² Cast your burden on the LORD, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved. ²³ But You, O God, shall bring them down to the pit of destruction; Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; But I will trust in You.
