Psalm 35:14

World English Bible (WEB)

I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.

In context

12 They reward me evil for good, to the bereaving of my soul.

13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting. My prayer returned into my own bosom.

14 I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.

15 But in my adversity, they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I didn’t know it. They tore at me, and didn’t cease.

16 Like the profane mockers in feasts, they gnashed their teeth at me.
