Psalm 35:12-14
EasyEnglish Bible
12 When I do good things to help them,
they pay me back with evil things!
That makes me feel very sad and upset.
13 When they were ill,
I wore rough clothes,
and I stopped eating food.
I bent down my head as I prayed for them.
14 I wept as I prayed,
as I would weep when a friend or my mother had died.
Psalm 35:12-14
New International Version
12 They repay me evil for good(A)
and leave me like one bereaved.
13 Yet when they were ill, I put on sackcloth(B)
and humbled myself with fasting.(C)
When my prayers returned to me unanswered,
14 I went about mourning(D)
as though for my friend or brother.
I bowed my head in grief
as though weeping for my mother.
