For it was not an enemy that reproached me; Then I could have borne it: Neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; Then I would have hid myself from him:But it was thou, a man mine equal, My companion, and my familiar friend.We took sweet counsel together; We walked in the house of God with the throng.
