11. My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague,and my nearest kin stand far off.
12. Those who seek my life lay their snares;those who seek my hurt speak of ruinand meditate treachery all day long.
13. But I am like a deaf man; I do not hear,like a mute man who does not open his mouth.
14. I have become like a man who does not hear,and in whose mouth are no rebukes.
