Bible verse
I am like a man who cannot hear, whose mouth offers no reply.
Psalm 38:14 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 38.
10 My heart pounds, my strength fails, and even the light of my eyes has faded.
11 My beloved and friends shun my disease, and my kinsmen stand at a distance.
12 Those who seek my life lay snares; those who wish me harm speak destruction, plotting deceit all day long.
13 But like a deaf man, I do not hear; and like a mute man, I do not open my mouth.
14 I am like a man who cannot hear, whose mouth offers no reply.
15 I wait for You, O LORD; You will answer, O Lord my God.
16 For I said, “Let them not gloat over me—those who taunt me when my foot slips.”
17 For I am ready to fall, and my pain is ever with me.
18 Yes, I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.
