In context

⁹O Lord, confuse and confound their speech, for I see violence and strife in the city.

¹⁰Day and night they encircle the walls, while malice and trouble lie within.

¹¹Destruction is within; oppression and deceit never leave the streets.

¹²For it is not an enemy who insults me; that I could endure. It is not a foe who rises against me; from him I could hide.

¹³But it is you, a man like myself, my companion and close friend.
