14 My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
15 They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
16 I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer, though I entreat him with my mouth.
17 My breath is strange to my wife, and my supplication to the children of my mother's womb.
18 Even young children despise me; if I arise, they speak against me.
19 All my inward friends abhor me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
