14. I went about in grief as for my brother,bent in mourning as for my mother.
15. Yet when I stumbled they gathered with glee,gathered against me and I did not know it.They slandered me without ceasing;
16. without respect they mocked me,gnashed their teeth against me.
17. O Lord, how long will you look on?Restore my soul from their destruction,my very life from lions!
18. Then I will thank you in the great assembly;I will praise you before the mighty throng.
19. Do not let lying foes rejoice over me,my undeserved enemies wink knowingly.
20. They speak no words of peace,but against the quiet in the landthey fashion deceitful speech.
