Psalm 55:19-21
New Catholic Bible

19 [a]He will deliver me in peace and safety
    from those who are arrayed against me,
    even though there are many of them.
20 God will hear me and humiliate them,
    he who has been enthroned forever. Selah
For they neither change their ways
    nor have any fear of God.
21 My companion treats his friends harshly
    and breaks his covenant.
