(2) verse 9 O Lord, on them destruction bring do thou their tongues divide. For strife and violence I within the city have espied. verse 10 About it on the walls thereof they walk both night and day: Mischief also and sorrow do in middest of it stay.
verse 11 In midst thereof there's wickedness, deceit doth there abide: Likewise out of the streets thereof guile turneth not aside. verse 12 For 'twas no foe reproached me, I could it then abide: Nor did my hater vaunt o'er me, from him I could me hide.
