11. My loved ones and my friends stand aloof from my plague; And my kinsmen stand afar off.
12. Those who seek my life lay snares for me; And those who seek to injure me have threatened destruction, And they devise treachery all day long.
13. But I, like a deaf man, do not hear; And I am like a mute man who does not open his mouth.
14. Yes, I am like a man who does not hear, And in whose mouth are no arguments.
