5. You, God, know my folly; my guilt is not hidden from you.
6. Lord, 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.
7. For I endure scorn for your sake, and shame covers my face.
8. I am a foreigner to my own family, a stranger to my own mother’s children;
9. for zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.
10. When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn;
11. when I put on sackcloth, people make sport of me.
12. Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of the drunkards.
13. But I pray to you, Lord, in the time of your favor; in your great love, O God, answer me with your sure salvation.
14. Rescue me from the mire, do not let me sink; deliver me from those who hate me, from the deep waters.
