5. Do not be willing to believe a friend. And do not be willing to confide in a commander. From her, who sleeps in your bosom, keep the doors of your mouth closed.
6. For the son acts with contempt for the father, and the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, and a man's enemies are those of his own household.
7. But I will look towards the Lord. I will wait for God, my Savior. My God will hear me.
8. You, my enemy, should not rejoice over me because I have fallen. I will rise up, when I sit in darkness. The Lord is my light.
9. I will carry the wrath of the Lord, because I have sinned against him, until he may judge my case and execute judgment for me. He will lead me into the light. I will behold his justice.
10. And my enemy will look, and she will be covered with confusion, she who says to me, "Where is the Lord your God?" My eyes will look upon her. Now she will be trampled under foot like the mud of the streets.
11. The day that your walls will be rebuilt, in that day the law will be far away.
