Psalms 55:9-16

9O LordH136, confuseH1104 and confoundH6385 their speechH3956, forH3588 I seeH7200 violenceH2555 and strifeH7379 in the cityH5892.10DayH3119 and nightH3915 they encircleH5437H5921 the wallsH2346, while maliceH205 and troubleH5999 lie withinH7130.11DestructionH1942 is withinH7130; oppressionH8496 and deceitH4820 neverH3808 leaveH4185 the streetsH7339.

12ForH3588 it is notH3808 an enemyH341 who insults meH2778;that I could endureH5375.It is notH3808 a foeH8130 who risesH1431 against meH5921;from himH4480 I could hideH5641.13But it is youH859, a manH582 like myselfH6187,my companionH441 and close friendH3045.14WeH834 shared sweetH4985 fellowshipH5475 togetherH3162;we walkedH1980 with the crowdH7285 into the houseH1004 of GodH430.
15Let death seize them by surpriseH3451H5921;let them go downH3381 to SheolH7585 aliveH2416,forH3588 evilH7451 is with themH7130 in their homesH4033.16But IH589 callH7121 toH413 GodH430,and the LORDH3068 saves meH3467.
