13. But I, as a deaf man, hear not; And I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
14. Yea, I am as a man that heareth not, And in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15. For in thee, O Jehovah, do I hope: Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.
16. For I said, Lest they rejoice over me: When my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
17. For I am ready to fall, And my sorrow is continually before me.
18. For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19. But mine enemies are lively, and are strong; And they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
20. They also that render evil for good Are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good.
21. Forsake me not, O Jehovah: O my God, be not far from me.
