9Confound, O Lord! divide their counsels! For I behold violence and strife in the city.
10Day and night do these go about its walls; In the midst of it are iniquity and mischief.
11Wickedness is in the midst of it; Oppression and fraud depart not from its streets.
12It was not an enemy that reviled me, Then I could have borne it; Nor one that hated me, who rose up against me; From him I could have hid myself.
13But it was thou, a man my equal, My friend, and my acquaintance.
