Psalms 55:9-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 55
9
Confuse them, Lord, divide their tongues,
For I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10
Day and night they go around her upon her walls,
And evil and harm are in her midst.
11
Destruction is in her midst;
Oppression and deceit do not depart from her streets.
12
For it is not an enemy who taunts me,
Then I could endure
it;
Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me,
Then I could hide myself from him.
13
But it is you, a man my equal,
My companion and my confidant;
14
We who had sweet fellowship together,
Walked in the house of God among the commotion.
King James Version
Chapter 55
9
Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10
Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
11
Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
12
For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
13
But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
14
We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 55
9
Lord, confuse and confound their speech,
for I see violence and strife in the city;
10
day and night they make the rounds on its walls.
Crime and trouble are within it;
11
destruction is inside it;
oppression and deceit never leave its marketplace.
12
Now it is not an enemy who insults me—
otherwise I could bear it;
it is not a foe who rises up against me—
otherwise I could hide from him.
13
But it is you, a man who is my peer,
my companion and good friend!
14
We used to have close fellowship;
we walked with the crowd into the house of God.
New Living Translation
Chapter 55
9
Confuse them, Lord, and frustrate their plans,
for I see violence and conflict in the city.
10
Its walls are patrolled day and night against invaders,
but the real danger is wickedness within the city.
11
Everything is falling apart;
threats and cheating are rampant in the streets.
12
It is not an enemy who taunts me —
I could bear that.
It is not my foes who so arrogantly insult me —
I could have hidden from them.
13
Instead, it is you — my equal,
my companion and close friend.
14
What good fellowship we once enjoyed
as we walked together to the house of God.
English Standard Version
Chapter 55
9
Destroy, O Lord, divide their tongues;
for I see violence and strife in the city.
10
Day and night they go around it
on its walls,
and iniquity and trouble are within it;
11
ruin is in its midst;
oppression and fraud
do not depart from its marketplace.
12
For it is not an enemy who taunts me —
then I could bear it;
it is not an adversary who deals insolently with me —
then I could hide from him.
13
But it is you, a man, my equal,
my companion, my familiar friend.
14
We used to take sweet counsel together;
within God 's house we walked in the throng.
New International Version
Chapter 55
9
Lord, confuse the wicked, confound their words,
for I see violence and strife in the city.
10
Day and night they prowl about on its walls;
malice and abuse are within it.
11
Destructive forces are at work in the city;
threats and lies never leave its streets.
12
If an enemy were insulting me,
I could endure it;
if a foe were rising against me,
I could hide.
13
But it is you, a man like myself,
my companion, my close friend,
14
with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship
at the house of God,
as we walked about
among the worshipers.
New King James Version
Chapter 55
9
Destroy, O Lord,
and
divide their tongues,
For I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10
Day and night they go around it on its walls;
Iniquity and trouble
are
also in the midst of it.
11
Destruction
is
in its midst;
Oppression and deceit do not depart from its streets.
12
For
it is
not an enemy
who
reproaches me;
Then I could bear
it.
Nor
is it
one
who
hates me who has exalted
himself
against me;
Then I could hide from him.
13
But
it was
you, a man my equal,
My companion and my acquaintance.
14
We took sweet counsel together,
And
walked to the house of God in the throng.
