Psalms 35:11-16

11Ruthless witnesses come forward; they question me on things I know nothing about.

12They repay me evil for good and leave me like one bereaved.

13Yet when they were ill, I put on sackcloth and humbled myself with fasting. When my prayers returned to me unanswered,

14I went about mourning as though for my friend or brother. I bowed my head in grief as though weeping for my mother.

15But when I stumbled, they gathered in glee; assailants gathered against me without my knowledge. They slandered me without ceasing.

16Like the ungodly they maliciously mocked; they gnashed their teeth at me.
