Revised Version 1895

Psalms 38:12-20

12They also that seek afterH7453 my life lay snares for meH5048; and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day longH7350.

13But I, as a deaf manH5315, hear notH5315; and I am as a dumb manH5315 that openeth notH5315 his mouthH5315.

14Yea, I am as a manH2795 that heareth notH3808, and in whose mouthH6310 are noH3808 reproofs.

15For in thee, O LORD, doH8085 I hope: thou wilt answer, O Lord my GodH3808.

16For I saidH6030, Lest they rejoice over meH859: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against meH859.

17For I am ready to halt, and my sorrowH5921 is continually beforeH5921 meH5921.

18For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

19But mine enemies are lively, and are strong: and they that hate meH5046 wrongfully are multiplied.

20They also that render evil for good are adversaries unto meH8130, because I follow the thing that is good.
