Psalm 35:14-16
EasyEnglish Bible
14 I wept as I prayed,
as I would weep when a friend or my mother had died.
15 But when I had troubles myself,
they were happy.
They stood together
and they laughed at me.
Even strangers attacked me
and they would not stop.
16 Useless people like that insulted me,
and they showed their teeth to frighten me.
Psalm 35:14-16
New International Version
14 I went about mourning(A)
as though for my friend or brother.
I bowed my head in grief
as though weeping for my mother.
15 But when I stumbled, they gathered in glee;(B)
assailants gathered against me without my knowledge.
They slandered(C) me without ceasing.
16 Like the ungodly they maliciously mocked;[a](D)
they gnashed their teeth(E) at me.
