American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
{Or, malicious See Exodus 23:1}Unrighteous witnesses rise up;They ask me of things that I know not.
They reward me evil for good,To the bereaving of my soul.
But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth:I afflicted my soul with fasting;And my prayer {Or, shall return}returned into mine own bosom.
I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother:I bowed down mourning, as one that bewaileth his mother.
But in {Hebrew: my limping.}mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together:The {Or, smiters}abjects gathered themselves together against me, and {Or, those whom I keep not}I knew it not;They did tear me, and ceased not:
{Or, Among}Like the profane mockers in feasts,They gnashed upon me with their teeth.
