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.
18 I told you my sins,and I am sorry for them.
