13 I have passed out of their minds
    like someone who has died;
    I have become like a broken vessel.[a]
14 I have heard the hissing of many:
    “There is terror on every side,”[b]
as they conspire together against me
    and plot to end my life.
15 But I place my trust in you, O Lord.
    I say, “You are my God.”
