Psalms 38:13 in context

Psalms 38:10–16

10

My heart throbs.

My strength fails me.

As for the light of my eyes, it has also left me.

11

My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague.

My kinsmen stand far away.

12

They also who seek after my life lay snares.

Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things,

and meditate deceits all day long.

13
Selected verse

But I, as a deaf man, don’t hear.

I am as a mute man who doesn’t open his mouth.

14

Yes, I am as a man who doesn’t hear,

in whose mouth are no reproofs.

15

For I hope in you, LORD.

You will answer, Lord my God.

16

For I said, “Don’t let them gloat over me,

or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips.”
