International Children’s Bible

Psalms 38:11-14 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

11. Because of my wounds, my friends and neighbors leave me alone.My relatives stay far away.

12. Some people set traps to kill me.Those who want to hurt me plan trouble.All day long they think up lies.

13. I am like a deaf man; I cannot hear.Like a mute, I cannot speak.

14. I am like a person who does not hear.I have no answer to give.
