The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: PSA 35:12 They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
PSA 35:13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was
sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into
mine own bosom.
PSA 35:14 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother:
I bowed down heavily, as one that mourneth for his mother.
PSA 35:15 But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves
together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and
I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
PSA 35:16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me
with their teeth.
