against me are sworn against me.

weeping.
PSA 102:10 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast
lifted me up, and cast me down.

like grass.

The second excerpt represents the element of Fire. It speaks of emotional influences and base passions, and is drawn from King James Bible: call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things
which are written in the law and in the prophets:
ACT 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow,
that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and
unjust.
ACT 24:16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience
void to offence toward God, and toward men.
ACT 24:17 Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and
offerings.
ACT 24:18 Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the
temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
