Parallel Strong's
Berean Study Bible
For I have heard the whispering of many: “Terror is on every side! Report him; let us report him!” All my trusted friends watch for my fall: “Perhaps he will be deceived so that we may prevail against him and take our vengeance upon him.”

Young's Literal Translation
For I have heard the evil report of many, Fear [is] round about: ‘Declare, and we declare it,’ All mine allies are watching [for] my halting, ‘Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance out of him.’

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.
