My enemies (A)speak evil against me,
“When will he die, and his name perish?”
And [a]when he comes to see me, he (B)speaks [b]empty words;
His heart gathers wickedness to itself;
When he goes outside, he tells it.
All who hate me whisper together against me;
They (C)plot my harm against me, saying,
“A wicked thing is poured out [c]upon him,
So that when he lies down, he will (D)not get up again.”
