6. Do not let those who wait with hope for yoube put to shame because of me, O Almighty Lord of Armies.Do not let those who come to you for helpbe humiliated because of me, O God of Israel.
7. Indeed, for your sake I have endured insults.Humiliation has covered my face.
8. I have become a stranger to my ⌊own⌋ brothers,a foreigner to my mother’s sons.
9. Indeed, devotion for your house has consumed me,and the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.
10. I cried and fasted, but I was insulted for it.
11. I dressed myself in sackcloth, but I became the object of ridicule.
12. Those who sit at the gate gossip about me,and drunkards make up songs about me.
13. May my prayer come to you at an acceptable time, O Lord.O God, out of the greatness of your mercy,answer me with the truth of your salvation.
