4My heart is severely pained within me: and the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
5Fearfulness and trembling have come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
6And I said, O that I had wings like a dove! for then I would fly away, and be at rest.
7Lo, then I would wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
8I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
9Destroy, O LORD, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10Day and night they go about it upon its walls: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
11Wickedness is in the midst of it: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
12For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it : neither was it he that hated me that magnified himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
13But it was thou, a man my equal, my guide, and my acquaintance.
14We took sweet counsel together, and walked to the house of God in company.
15Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
16As for me, I will call upon God: and the LORD will save me.
17Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he will hear my voice.
18He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.
19God will hear and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
20He hath put forth his hands against such as are at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
21The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
