11. For my life is consumed in sorrow and my years in sighing. My strength fails because of my anguish and my bones waste away.
12. Because of all my adversaries I am the contempt of my neighbors and a dread to my acquaintances. Seeing me on the street, they flee from me.
13. I am as forgotten as a dead man. I have become like a broken vessel.
14. For I have heard the whispering of many. There is terror on every side as they conspire against me and plot to take my life.
15. But I have trusted in You, Adonai. I said: “You are my God.”
