Psalm 38:12-22
12
Those who want to kill me set their traps, those who would harm me talk of my ruin; all day long they scheme and lie.
13
I am like the deaf, who cannot hear, like the mute, who cannot speak;
14
I have become like one who does not hear, whose mouth can offer no reply.
15
LORD, I wait for you; you will answer, Lord my God.
16
For I said, “Do not let them gloat or exalt themselves over me when my feet slip.”
17
For I am about to fall, and my pain is ever with me.
18
I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.
19
Many have become my enemies without causea ; those who hate me without reason are numerous.
20
Those who repay my good with evil lodge accusations against me, though I seek only to do what is good.
21
LORD, do not forsake me; do not be far from me, my God.
22
Come quickly to help me, my Lord and my Savior.
