11Among all my enemies I am a disgrace,
and among my neighbors even more.
I am dreaded by my friends—
they flee when they see me on the street.
12I am forgotten like a dead man, out of mind.
I am like a broken vessel.
13For I hear the slander of many;
there is terror on every side.
They conspire against me
and plot to take my life.
— Psalm 31:11-13
