13. And I, as deaf, hear not. And as a dumb one who openeth not his mouth.
14. Yea, I am as a man who heareth not, And in his mouth are no reproofs.
15. Because for Thee, O Jehovah, I have waited, Thou dost answer, O Lord my God.
16. When I said, `Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping of my foot against me they magnified themselves.
17. For I am ready to halt, And my pain [is] before me continually.
18. For mine iniquity I declare, I am sorry for my sin.
19. And mine enemies [are] lively, They have been strong, and those hating me without cause, Have been multiplied.
