I am even like someone who does not hear, who has no answer ready.
On the day I cried out, you answered; you strengthened my spirit.
I call upon you; answer me, O God. Turn your ear to me; hear my speech.
Man goes about as a mere phantom; they hurry about, although in vain; he heaps up stores without knowing for whom.
Though harshly treated, he submitted and did not open his mouth; Like a lamb led to slaughter or a sheep silent before shearers, he did not open his mouth.
