For my loins are filled with a loathsome [disease]: and [there is] no soundness in my flesh.
I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
Lord, all my desire [is] before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
They also that seek after my life lay snares [for me]: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
But I, as a deaf [man], heard not; and [I was] as a dumb man [that] openeth not his mouth.
Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth [are] no reproofs.
For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
For I said, [Hear me], lest [otherwise] they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify [themselves] against me.
