13 But it is you, my equal,
   my companion, my familiar friend,
14 with whom I kept pleasant company;
   we walked in the house of God with the throng.
15 Let death come upon them;
   let them go down alive to Sheol;
   for evil is in their homes and in their hearts.


16 But I call upon God,
   and the Lord will save me.
17 Evening and morning and at noon
   I utter my complaint and moan,
   and he will hear my voice.
18 He will redeem me unharmed
   from the battle that I wage,
   for many are arrayed against me.
19 God, who is enthroned from of old,
          Selah
   will hear, and will humble them—
because they do not change,
   and do not fear God.


20 My companion laid hands on a friend
   and violated a covenant with me*
21 with speech smoother than butter,
   but with a heart set on war;
with words that were softer than oil,
   but in fact were drawn swords.


22 Cast your burden* on the Lord,
   and he will sustain you;
he will never permit
   the righteous to be moved.


23 But you, O God, will cast them down
   into the lowest pit;
the bloodthirsty and treacherous
   shall not live out half their days.
But I will trust in you.
