Psalms 35:11-16

11Malicious witnesses testify against me. They accuse me of crimes I know nothing about.

12They repay me evil for good. I am sick with despair.

13Yet when they were ill, I grieved for them. I denied myself by fasting for them, but my prayers returned unanswered.

14I was sad, as though they were my friends or family, as if I were grieving for my own mother.

15But they are glad now that I am in trouble; they gleefully join together against me. I am attacked by people I don’t even know; they slander me constantly.

16They mock me and call me names; they snarl at me.
