For I have heard the whispering of many: “Terror is on every side! Report him; let us report him!” All my trusted friends watch for my fall: “Perhaps he will be deceived so that we may prevail against him and take our vengeance upon him.”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce, and we will denounce him, say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.

All my familiars{H582}{H7965} watched{H8104}{(H8802)} for my halting{H6763}{(H8676)}{H6761}, saying, Peradventure he will be enticed{H6601}{(H8792)}, and we shall prevail{H3201}{(H8799)} against him, and we shall take{H3947}{(H8799)} our revenge{H5360} on him.
