13 I am like the deaf, who cannot hear,

like the mute, who cannot speak;

14 I have become like one who does not hear,

whose mouth can offer no reply.

15 Lord, I wait for you;

you will answer, Lord my God.

13 But I, as a deaf man, heard not;

And I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not,

And in whose mouth are no reproofs.

15 For in thee, O Lord, do I hope:

Thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

13 But I am deaf to all their threats.

I am silent before them as one who cannot speak.

14 I choose to hear nothing,

and I make no reply.

15 For I am waiting for you, O Lord.

You must answer for me, O Lord my God.

13 But I, like a deaf man, do not hear;

And I am like a mute who does not open his mouth.

14 Thus I am like a man who does not hear,

And in whose mouth is no response.

15 For in You, O Lord, I hope;

You will hear, O Lord my God.

13 I am like the deaf; I cannot hear.

Like the mute, I cannot speak.

14 I am like those who do not hear,

who have no answer to give.

15 I trust you, Lord.

You will answer, my Lord and God.

13 But I, as a deaf man, hear not;

And I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

14 Yea, I am as a man that heareth not,

And in whose mouth are no reproofs.

15 For in thee, O Jehovah, do I hope:

Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.

13 But I, as a deaf man, hear not; and am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth. 14 Yea, I am as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs. 15 For in thee, Jehovah, do I hope: thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.

13 But I am like a person who cannot hear 

and like a person who cannot speak. 

14 I am like one who cannot hear 

and who can offer no arguments. 

15 But I wait with hope for you, O Lord. 

You will answer, O Lord, my God. 

13 I am like a deaf person; I do not hear.

I am like a speechless person

who does not open his mouth.

14 I am like a man who does not hear

and has no arguments in his mouth.

15 I put my hope in You, Lord;

You will answer, Lord my God.

13 But I am like the deaf, I do not hear;

like the mute, who cannot speak.

14 Truly, I am like one who does not hear,

and in whose mouth is no retort.

15 But it is for you, O Lord, that I wait;

it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer.

13 But as for me, like the deaf I cannot hear,

and I am like the mute who cannot open his mouth.

14 And so I am like a man who hears not,

and in whose mouth there are no retorts.

15 Rather for you I wait, O Yahweh.

You will answer, O Lord my God.

13 I’m like a deaf person. I can’t hear.

I’m like someone who can’t speak, who can’t say a word.

14 I’m like a man who doesn’t hear.

I’m like someone whose mouth can’t make any reply.

15 Lord, I wait for you to help me.

Lord my God, I know you will answer.

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.

15 For I hope in You, O Lord;

You will answer, O Lord my God.
