14 We used to share our secrets with one another,
    as we walked through the crowds together in God’s Temple.

15 I wish death would take my enemies by surprise!
    I wish the earth would open up and swallow them alive,[a]
    because they plan such terrible things together.

16 I will call to God for help,
    and the Lord will save me.
