Psalm 35:14 in context

  1. 12They reward me evil for good,
    to the bereaving of my soul.
  2. 13But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth.
    I afflicted my soul with fasting.
    My prayer returned into my own bosom.
  3. 14I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother.
    I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.

    The attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I didn’t know it.
    They tore at me, and didn’t cease.
  5. 16Like the profane mockers in feasts,
    they gnashed their teeth at me.
