Psalms 37:13-16

¹³While they pressed hard upon me that sought my soul: and they that sought my hurt spoke vanities, and devised deceits all the day.

¹⁴But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and was as a dumb man not opening his mouth.

¹⁵And I was as a man that hears not, and who has no reproofs in his mouth.

¹⁶For I hoped in thee, O Lord: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
