13 “He has (A)removed my brothers far from me,
And my (B)acquaintances have completely turned away from me.
14 My relatives have failed,

15 Those who live in my house and my servant women consider me a stranger.
I am a foreigner in their sight.
16 I call to my servant, but he does not answer;
I have to implore his favor with my mouth.
17 My breath is offensive to my wife,
And I am loathsome to my own brothers.

And those I love have turned against me.

They have become her enemies.
