12. It is not an enemy who taunts me—I could bear that.It is not my foes who so arrogantly insult me—I could have hidden from them.
13. Instead, it is you—my equal,my companion and close friend.
14. What good fellowship we once enjoyedas we walked together to the house of God.
15. Let death stalk my enemies;let the grave swallow them alive,for evil makes its home within them.
16. But I will call on God,and the lord will rescue me.
