Psalms 38:14

WEB

Yes, I am as a man who doesn't hear, in whose mouth are no reproofs.

KJV

Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

Commentary

Thus I was as a man that heareth not,.... Any thing that is said unto him; he took no more notice of it than if he had never heard it; but bore all the railings and calumnies of men with calmness and patience; and in whose mouth are no reproofs; as if he had nothing to say for himself, in vindication of his character, and to the refutation of his enemies; as if he had no arguments to make use of, for the conviction and reproof of his adversaries.
