Psalms 35:17
King James Version
“Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.”
Context
14I behaved myself as though my friend brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth mother.
15But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew not; they did tear and ceased not:
16With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
17Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
18I will give thee thanks in the great congregation: I will praise thee among much people.
19Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
20For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against quiet in the land.
