Verse 15 is found in chapter 38 of Psalms. Psalm 38 presents physical suffering, guilt, and social isolation within a single penitential prayer. The psalmist’s wounds are interpreted in relation to his sin, but the text does not reduce all human illness to a mechanical explanation: the center is the plea for mercy. Friends and enemies become part of the anguish, while the psalmist maintains an attitude of waiting before God and ends by asking the Lord not to be far away.

und muß sein wie einer, der nicht hört und der keine Widerrede in seinem Munde hat.
Porque a ti, oh Jehová, esperé yo: Tú responderás, Jehová Dios mío.
Porque en ti espero, Jehová; tú responderás, Señor, Dios mío.
Eternel! c'est en toi que j'espère; Tu répondras, Seigneur, mon Dieu!
Perciocchè, o Signore, io ti aspetto, Tu risponderai, o Signore Iddio mio.
Porque em ti, SENHOR, espero; tu, Senhor meu Deus, me ouvirás.
耶和華啊,我仰望你! 主-我的上帝啊,你必應允我!
