Psalms 55:11-17 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

11. destruction is inside it;oppression and deceit never leave its marketplace.

12. Now it is not an enemy who insults me —otherwise I could bear it;it is not a foe who rises up against me —otherwise I could hide from him.

13. But it is you, a man who is my peer,my companion and good friend!

14. We used to have close fellowship;we walked with the crowd into the house of God.

15. Let death take them by surprise; let them go down to Sheol alive,because evil is in their homes and within them.

16. But I call to God,and the Lord will save me.

17. I complain and groan morning, noon, and night, and He hears my voice.
