Psalms 69:5-12

5O God, you know my folly; the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.

6Let not those who hope in you be put to shame through me, O Lord God of hosts; let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, O God of Israel.

7For it is for your sake that I have borne reproach, that dishonor has covered my face.

8I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother's sons.

9For zeal for your house has consumed me, and the reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.

10When I wept and humbled my soul with fasting, it became my reproach.

11When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.

12I am the talk of those who sit in the gate, and the drunkards make songs about me.
