NET Bible
"I am forgotten, like a dead man no one thinks about; I am regarded as worthless, like a broken jar."
— Psalms 31:12, NET Bible
“I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.”
“I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. ”
“I am forgotten from their hearts like a dead man. I am like broken pottery.”
“I have gone from men's minds and memory like a dead man; I am like a broken vessel.”
“I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.”
Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am in distress! My eyes grow dim from suffering. I have lost my strength.
For my life nears its end in pain; my years draw to a close as I groan. My strength fails me because of my sin, and my bones become brittle.
Because of all my enemies, people disdain me; my neighbors are appalled by my suffering– those who know me are horrified by my condition; those who see me in the street run away from me.
I am forgotten, like a dead man no one thinks about; I am regarded as worthless, like a broken jar.
For I hear what so many are saying, the terrifying news that comes from every direction. When they plot together against me, they figure out how they can take my life.
But I trust in you, O LORD! I declare,“You are my God!”
You determine my destiny! Rescue me from the power of my enemies and those who chase me.
