Psalms 38:9-13

Lord, all my desire is before You; And my sighing is not hidden from You.

My heart throbs, my strength fails me; And the light of my eyes, even that has gone from me.

My loved ones and my friends stand aloof from my plague; And my kinsmen stand far away.

Those who seek my life lay snares for me; And those who seek to injure me have threatened destruction, And they plot deception all day long.

But I, like a person who is deaf, do not hear; And I am like a person who cannot speak, who does not open his mouth.
