13 But as for me, when they were choleh (ill), my clothing was sackcloth; I humbled my nefesh with tzom (fasting); and my tefillah (prayer) turned back on mine own kheyk (bosom).
14 I went about as though he had been my re'a or ach; I bowed in sadness, as one that mourneth for his em.
15 But at mine stumbling they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together; yes, the attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I had no da'as; they did tear at me [with slander], and ceased not:
16 Like chanef (hypocritical) mockers at cake, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17 Adonoi, how long wilt Thou look on? Rescue my nefesh from their destructions, my yechidah (only one, my life) from the lions.
18 I will give Thee thanks in the kahal rav (great congregation); I will praise Thee among the mighty throng.
19 Let not them that are mine oyevim gloat over me; neither let them wink with the eye that have sinas chinom (baseless hatred) toward me.
