Psalms 55:15 in Context — Psalms 55

13 Mas tú, hombre, al parecer íntimo mío, mi guía, y mi familiar:

14 Que juntos comunicábamos dulcemente los secretos, á la casa de Dios andábamos en compañía.

15 Condenados sean á muerte, desciendan vivos al infierno: porque maldades hay en su compañía, entre ellos.

16 Yo á Dios clamaré; y Jehová me salvará.

17 Tarde y mañana y á medio día oraré y clamaré; y él oirá mi voz.
