7In secret they whisper together against me, all those who hate me plot evil against me.
8“Some fatal disease has fastened upon him; and now that he lies, he will rise up no more.”
9My most trusted friend, on whom I relied, who ate of my bread, has turned against me.
10But do you, Lord, graciously raise me up, that I may pay them their due reward.
11By this will I know you delight in me: if my foes may not shout over me in triumph.
12For my innocence you uphold me, and set me forever before your face.
13Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting, Amen and Amen.
