Psalm 35:12-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
12 They repay me evil for good;
my soul is desolate.(A)
13 [a]Yet I, when they were ill, put on sackcloth,
afflicted myself with fasting,
sobbed my prayers upon my bosom.
14 I went about in grief as for my brother,
bent in mourning as for my mother.

as though for my friend or brother.
I bowed my head in grief
as though weeping for my mother.
