Psalms 50:20

You plot against your brother; ¹  you slander your own brother. ² 

You speak continually against your brother and slander your own mother’s son.

"You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son.

You sit around and slander a brother––your own mother’s son.

You stab your own brother in the back, rip off your little sister.

You say evil of your brother; you make false statements against your mother’s son.

You sit and speak against your kin; you slander your own mother’s child.

You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son.

You plot against your brother; ¹  you slander your own brother. ² 

¹ tn Heb “you sit, against your brother you speak.” To “sit” and “speak” against someone implies plotting against that person (see Ps 119:23).

² tn Heb “against the son of your mother you give a fault.”
