The Violence of the City and the Betrayal

Psalms 55:9-15

Destroy, O Lord, and deuide their tongues: for I haue seene crueltie and strife in the citie.

Day and night they goe about it vpon the walles thereof: both iniquitie and mischiefe are in the middes of it.

Wickednes is in the middes thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streetes.

Surely mine enemie did not defame mee: for I could haue borne it: neither did mine aduersarie exalt himselfe against mee: for I would haue hid me from him.

But it was thou, O man, euen my companion, my guide and my familiar:

Which delited in consulting together, and went into the House of God as companions.

Let death sense vpon them: let them goe downe quicke into the graue: for wickednes is in their dwellings, euen in the middes of them.
