For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, say they, and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my halting, saying, Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
I heard many people gossiping and fear was everywhere. They wanted to report something and so would others. Everyone watched for me to make a mistake, hoping I'd fall for temptation, then they could defeat me and get their revenge.
