Psalms 69:5-12

5You, God, know my folly; my guilt is not hidden from you.

6Lord, the Lord Almighty, may those who hope in you not be disgraced because of me; God of Israel, may those who seek you not be put to shame because of me.

7For I endure scorn for your sake, and shame covers my face.

8I am a foreigner to my own family, a stranger to my own mother’s children;

9for zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.

10When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn;

11when I put on sackcloth, people make sport of me.

12Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of the drunkards.
