Psalms 40:5-8

⁵I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

⁶My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?

⁷And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: his heart gathered together iniquity to itself. He went out and spoke to the same purpose.

⁸All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.
