Psalms 37:13-19

¹³And they that sought my soul used violence. And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, and studied deceits all the day long.

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

¹⁵And I became as a man that heareth not: and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.

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

¹⁷For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.

¹⁸For I am ready for scourges: and my sorrow is continually before me.

¹⁹For I will declare my inequity: and I will think for my sin.
