Psalm 35:12-14
Easy-to-Read Version
12 They pay me back evil for the good I have done.
They make me so very sad.
13 When they were sick, I was sad and wore sackcloth.
I went without eating to show my sorrow.
(May my prayers for them not be answered!)
14 I mourned for them as I would for a friend or a brother.
I bowed low with sadness, crying as I would for my own mother.

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.
