Psalms 69:5-12

5Those who hate me without a cause outnumber the hairs of my head. Powerful are my enemies who would destroy me with lies. What I did not steal, must I restore?

6O God, You know my folly, nor are my trespasses hidden from You.

7May those who hope in You not be ashamed because of me, my Lord, Adonai-Tzva’ot. May those who seek You not be disgraced because of me, O God of Israel.

8For I have endured scorn for Your sake. Disgrace has covered my face.

9I have become a stranger to my brothers, a foreigner to my mother’s children.

10For zeal for Your House consumed me— the insults of those who insulted You have fallen on me.

11When I wept and fasted— that became a reproach to me.

12When I put on sackcloth, I became a joke to them.
