11. Unjust witnesses rising up have asked me things I knew not.
12. They repaid me evil for good: to the depriving me of my soul.
13. But as for me, when they were troublesome to me, I was clothed with haircloth. I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer shall be turned into my bosom.
14. As a neighbour and as an own brother, so did I please: as one mourning and sorrowful so was I humbled.
15. But they rejoiced against me, and came together: scourges were gathered together upon me, and I knew not.
16. They were separated, and repented not: they tempted me, they scoffed at me with scorn: they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17. Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? rescue thou soul from their malice: my only one from the lions.
18. I will give thanks to thee in a great church; I will praise thee in a strong people.
19. Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes.
20. For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile.
21. And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it.
22. Thou hast seen, O Lord, be not thou silent: O Lord, depart not from me.
