Psalm 41:6-8

Revised Standard Version

⁶And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words,
    while his heart gathers mischief;
    when he goes out, he tells it abroad.
⁷All who hate me whisper together about me;
    they imagine the worst for me.

⁸They say, “A deadly thing has fastened upon him;
he will not rise again from where he lies.”
