In context

11My heart is troubled, my strength has failed me; And the light of mine eyes is not with me.

12My friends and my neighbors drew near before me, and stood still; And my nearest of kin stood afar off.

— Psalms 37:13 —

14But I, as a deaf man, heard not; And was as a dumb man not opening his mouth.

15And I was as a man that hears not, And who has no reproofs in his mouth.
