Psalms 38:9-14

9LordH136, all my desireH8378 is before thee; and my groaningH585 is not hidH5641 from thee.

10My heartH3820 pantethH5503, my strengthH3581 failethH5800 me: as for the lightH216 of mine eyesH5869, itH1992 also is goneH369 from me.1

11My loversH157 and my friendsH7453 standH5975 aloof fromH5048 my soreH5061; and my kinsmenH7138 standH5975 afar offH7350.23

12They also that seekH1245 after my lifeH5315 lay snaresH5367 for me: and they that seekH1875 my hurtH7451 speakH1696 mischievous thingsH1942, and imagineH1897 deceitsH4820 all the dayH3117 long.

13But I, as a deafH2795 man, heardH8085 not; and I was as a dumb manH483 that openethH6605 not his mouthH6310.

14Thus I was as a manH376 that hearethH8085 not, and in whose mouthH6310 are no reproofsH8433.
