Psalms 41:5-8

⁵Those who hate me only say evil things about me. “When is he going to die, and people forget all about him?” they ask.

⁶They come to visit me, but their sympathy is not sincere. They're only interested in the bad news, which they spread around as soon as they leave.

⁷All who hate me talk in whispers about my condition, hoping for the worst.

⁸“He's been cursed with some terrible disease,” they say. “Now he's bed-ridden he'll never recover!”
