13. But I, like a deaf man, do not hear; And I am like a mute man who does not open his mouth.
14. Yes, I am like a man who does not hear, And in whose mouth are no arguments.
15. For I hope in You, O Lord; You will answer, O Lord my God.
16. For I said, "May they not rejoice over me, Who, when my foot slips, would magnify themselves against me."
17. For I am ready to fall, And my sorrow is continually before me.
18. For I confess my iniquity; I am full of anxiety because of my sin.
19. But my enemies are vigorous and strong, And many are those who hate me wrongfully.
20. And those who repay evil for good, They oppose me, because I follow what is good.
21. Do not forsake me, O Lord; O my God, do not be far from me!
22. Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!
