Psalms 38:15

Waiting on GodHopePrayerFaith

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.

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.
