Psalm 55:12–14 - “For it is not an enemy who taunts me—then I could bear it; it is not an adversary who deals insolently with me - then I could hide from him. But it is you, a man, my equal, my companion, my familiar friend. We used to take sweet counsel together; within God’s house we walked in the throng.”

If an enemy were insulting me,
I could endure it;
if a foe were rising against me,
I could hide.
But it is you, a man like myself,
my companion, my close friend,
with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship
at the house of God,
as we walked about
among the worshipers.

Nice catch! Cool to learn that the "friends close, enemies closer" saying came from the good book. Seems to happen everyday. Wonder if Jack knew?
