11 (12) My loved ones and my re'a stand aloof from my nega [see Isa 53:8 on Moshiach's nega]; and my neighbors stand afar off.
12 (13) They also that seek after my nefesh lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak of ruin, and plot mirmot (deceptions, deceits) all the day long.
13 (14) But I, like a cheresh (deaf man), heard not; and I was like a mute that openeth not his mouth.
14 (15) Thus I was like an ish that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no tokhachot (reproofs).
15 (16) For I wait for Thee, Hashem; Thou wilt hear, Adonoi Elohai.
16 (17) For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should gloat over me; when my regel slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
17 (18) For I am ready to fall, and my sorrow is before me tamid.
