(A)Put no trust in a neighbor;
    have no confidence in a friend;
guard (B)the doors of your mouth
    from her who lies in your arms;[a]
for (C)the son treats the father with contempt,
    the daughter rises up against her mother,
the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
    (D)a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
But as for me, I will look to the Lord;
    (E)I will wait for the God of my salvation;
    my God will hear me.

(F)Rejoice not over me, O (G)my enemy;
    (H)when I fall, I shall rise;
(I)when I sit in darkness,
    the Lord will be a light to me.
