Complaint Against Deceitful Enemies

Psalms 109:1-5

To him that excelleth. A Psalme of David. Holde not thy tongue, O God of my praise.

For the mouth of the wicked, and the mouth full of deceite are opened vpon me: they haue spoken to me with a lying tongue.

They compassed me about also with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.

For my friendship they were mine aduersaries, but I gaue my selfe to praier.

And they haue rewarded me euil for good, and hatred for my friendship.
