11. (12) My loved ones and my re'a stand aloof from my nega [see Isa 53:8 on Moshiach's nega]; and my neighbors stand afar off.
12. (13) They also that seek after my nefesh lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak of ruin, and plot mirmot (deceptions, deceits) all the day long.
13. (14) But I, like a cheresh (deaf man), heard not; and I was like a mute that openeth not his mouth.
14. (15) Thus I was like an ish that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no tokhachot (reproofs).
