12. Those who want to kill me lay traps for me,and those who want to hurt me threaten to ruin me;they never stop plotting against me.
13. I am like the deaf and cannot hear,like the dumb and cannot speak.
14. I am like those who do not answer,because they cannot hear.
15. But I trust in you, O Lord;and you, O Lord my God, will answer me.
16. Don't let my enemies gloat over my distress;don't let them boast about my downfall!
17. I am about to falland am in constant pain.
18. I confess my sins;they fill me with anxiety.
19. My enemies are healthy and strong;there are many who hate me for no reason.
