5
Thou, O God, knowest my foolishness, and my trespasses are not hidden from thee.
6
Let not them that wait on thee, Lord, Jehovah of hosts, be ashamed through me; let not those that seek thee be confounded through me, O God of Israel.
7
Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; confusion hath covered my face.
8
I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's sons;
9
For the zeal of thy house hath devoured me, and the reproaches of them that reproach thee have fallen upon me.
