Psalms 68:4-8

⁴I have laboured with crying; my jaws are become hoarse: my eyes have failed, whilst I hope in my God.

⁵They are multiplied above the hairs of my head, who hate me without cause. My enemies are grown strong who have wrongfully persecuted me: then did I pay that which I took not away.

⁶O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my offences are not hidden from thee:

⁷Let not them be ashamed for me, who look for thee, O Lord, the Lord of hosts. Let them not be confounded on my account, who seek thee, O God of Israel.

⁸Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
