11
I am the scorn of all my adversaries, a horror to my neighbors, an object of dread to my acquaintances; those who see me in the street flee from me.
12
I have passed out of mind like one who is dead; I have become like a broken vessel.
13
Yea, I hear the whispering of many--terror on every side! --as they scheme together against me, as they plot to take my life.
14
But I trust in thee, O LORD, I say, "Thou art my God."
15
My times are in thy hand; deliver me from the hand of my enemies and persecutors!
