12And those seeking my soul lay a snare, And those seeking my evil Have spoken mischievous things, And they do deceits meditate all the day.
13And I, as deaf, hear not. And as a dumb one who openeth not his mouth.
14Yea, I am as a man who heareth not, And in his mouth are no reproofs.
15Because for Thee, O Jehovah, I have waited, Thou dost answer, O Lord my God.
16When I said, 'Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping of my foot against me they magnified themselves.
17For I am ready to halt, And my pain is before me continually.
18For mine iniquity I declare, I am sorry for my sin.
19And mine enemies are lively, They have been strong, and those hating me without cause, Have been multiplied.
