- And when he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood; His heart gathers wickedness to itself; When he goes outside, he tells it.
- All who hate me whisper together against me; Against me they devise my hurt, saying,
- "A wicked thing is poured out upon him, That when he lies down, he will not rise up again."
- Even my close friend in whom I trusted, Who ate my bread, Has lifted up his heel against me.
- But You, O LORD, be gracious to me and raise me up, That I may repay them.

- Whenever one comes to see me, he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander; then he goes out and spreads it abroad.
- All my enemies whisper together against me; they imagine the worst for me, saying,
- "A vile disease has beset him; he will never get up from the place where he lies."
- Even my close friend, whom I trusted, he who shared my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
- But you, O LORD, have mercy on me; raise me up, that I may repay them.
