11. I am scorned by all my enemiesand despised by my neighbors—even my friends are afraid to come near me.When they see me on the street,they run the other way.
12. I am ignored as if I were dead,as if I were a broken pot.
13. I have heard the many rumors about me,and I am surrounded by terror.My enemies conspire against me,plotting to take my life.
14. But I am trusting you, O lord,saying, “You are my God!”
15. My future is in your hands.Rescue me from those who hunt me down relentlessly.
