Psalms 55:13

55:13 But it is you, a man like me,

my close friend in whom I confided.

Psalms 119:63

119:63 I am a friend to all your loyal followers,

and to those who keep your precepts.


sn It is you. The psalmist addresses the apparent ringleader of the opposition, an individual who was once his friend.

tn Heb “a man according to my value,” i.e., “a person such as I.”

tn Heb “my close friend, one known by me.”

tn Heb “to all who fear you.”
