Salmos 38:13

13 Mas yo, como si fuera sordo no oía; Y estaba como un mudo, que no abre su boca.

Salmos 38:13 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 38:13

But I, as a deaf [man], heard not
He acted the part of a deaf man, and made as if he did not hear the mischievous things his enemies spoke; as Saul, when the sons of Belial spoke against him and despised him, ( 1 Samuel 10:27 ) ; and as our Lord when his enemies accused him, ( Matthew 27:12-14 ) ;

and [I was] as a dumb man, [that] openeth not his mouth;
made no reply to what they said, and did not render railing for railing; in which Christ was the antitype of him, ( Isaiah 53:7 ) ( 1 Peter 2:23 ) ( 3:9 ) .

Salmos 38:13 In-Context

11 Mis amigos y mis compañeros se quitaron de delante de mi plaga; Y mis cercanos se pusieron lejos.
12 Y los que buscaban mi alma armaron lazos; Y los que procuraban mi mal hablaban iniquidades, Y meditaban fraudes todo el día.
13 Mas yo, como si fuera sordo no oía; Y estaba como un mudo, que no abre su boca.
14 Fuí pues como un hombre que no oye, Y que en su boca no tiene reprensiones.
15 Porque á ti, oh Jehová, esperé yo: Tú responderás, Jehová Dios mío.
