11 Because of my sickness,no friends or neighbourswill come near me.
12 All who want me deadset traps to catch me,and those who wantto harm and destroy meplan and plot all day.
13 I am not able to hearor speak a word;
14 I am completely deafand can't make a sound.
15 I trust you, Lord God,and you will do something.
16 I said, “Don't let them laughor boast because I slip.”
17 I am about to collapsefrom constant pain.
