Psalm 35:11-13

New Century Version

¹¹ Men without mercy stand up to testify.
    They ask me things I do not know.
¹² They repay me with evil for the good I have done,
    and they make me very sad.
¹³ Yet when they were sick, I put on clothes of sadness
    and showed my sorrow by fasting.
But my prayers were not answered.
