The ungodly watcheth the righteous, and seeketh occasion to slay him.

He sitteth lurking in the thievish corners of the streets, and privily in his lurking dens doth he murder the innocent; his eyes are set against the poor.

The ungodly layeth wait for the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

For why? I heard so many derisions and blasphemies, yea even of my own companions, and such as were conversant with me: which went about, to make me afraid, saying, "Upon him; let us go upon him, to fear him, and make him hold his tongue: that we may overcome him, and be avenged of him."

And the scribes, and Pharisees watched him, to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath day or not, that they might find an accusation against him.

Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something of his mouth, whereby they might accuse him.

And it chanced that he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread, on a Sabbath day: and they watched him.

And he taught daily in the temple. The high priests and the scribes and the chief of the people, went about to destroy him;

And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves perfect, to take him in his words, and to deliver him unto the power, and authority of the deputy.

But their layings wait was known of Saul. And they watched at the gates day and night to kill him.
