6. I am bent and bowed down greatly; I go about mourning all the day long.
7. For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no soundness in my flesh.
8. I am faint and sorely bruised [deadly cold and quite worn out]; I groan by reason of the disquiet and moaning of my heart.
9. Lord, all my desire is before You; and my sighing is not hidden from You.
10. My heart throbs, my strength fails me; as for the light of my eyes, it also is gone from me.
11. My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my plague; and my neighbors and my near ones stand afar off. [Luke 23:49.]
12. They also that seek and demand my life lay snares for me, and they that seek and require my hurt speak crafty and mischievous things; they meditate treachery and deceit all the day long.
13. But I, like a deaf man, hear not; and I am like a dumb man who opens not his mouth.
14. Yes, I have become like a man who hears not, in whose mouth are no arguments or replies.
