Seeker

My heart is severely pained within me, And the terrors of death have fallen upon me. For  it is  not an enemy  who  reproaches me; Then I could bear  it.  Nor  is it  one  who  hates me who has exalted  himself  against me; Then I could hide from him. But  it was  you, a man my equal, My companion and my acquaintance.

As for me, I will call upon God, And the Lord shall save me. Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, And He shall hear my voice. He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle  that was  against me, For there were many against me.

God will hear, and afflict them, Even He who abides from of old. Selah. Because they do not change, Therefore they do not fear God. He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; He has broken his covenant.  The words  of his mouth were smoother than butter, But war  was  in his heart; His words were softer than oil, Yet they  were  drawn swords.

Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.
Psalm 55:4, 12-13, 16-22 NKJV
