Psalms 38:14

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.

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.”
