13 |He has put my relatives far from me; my acquaintances only turn away from me.

14 My kinsmen have failed me; my friends have forgotten me.

15 My guests and my servant girls consider me a stranger; I am a foreigner in their eyes.

16 I summon my servant, but he does not respond, even though I implore him with my own mouth.

17 My breath is repulsive to my wife; I am loathsome to my brothers.

18 Even youngsters have scorned me; when I get up, they scoff at me.

19 All my closest friends detest me; and those whom I love have turned against me.
