8. I hurt so much I cannot feel anything. My pounding heart makes me scream!
9. My Lord, you heard my groaning. You can hear my sighs.
10. My heart is pounding. My strength is gone, and I am going blind.
11. Because of my sickness, my friends and neighbors will not visit me; my family will not come near me.
12. My enemies say bad things about me. They are spreading lies and rumors. They talk about me all the time.
13. But I am like a deaf man and cannot hear. I am like someone who cannot speak.
