Psalms 38:12 Context
10My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eies, it also is gone from me. 11My louers and my friends stand a loofe from my sore: and my kinsmen stand a farre off. 12They also that seeke after my life, lay snares for me: and they that seeke my hurt, speake mischieuous things, and imagine deceits all the day long. 13But I, as a deafe man, heard not; and I was as a dumbe man that openeth not his mouth. 14Thus I was as a man that heareth not; and in whose mouth are no reproofes.
