Psalms 55:13 Context
11Wickednesse is in the midst thereof: deceite and guile depart not from her streets. 12For it was not an enemie that reproached me, then I could haue borne it, neither was it hee that hated me, that did magnifie himselfe against me, then I would haue hid my selfe from him. 13But it was thou, a man, mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance. 14Wee tooke sweet counsell together, and walked vnto the house of God in companie. 15Let death seaze vpon them, and let them goe downe quicke into hell: for wickednes is in their dwellings, and among them.
