5They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: my enemies that persecute me unrighteously are strengthened: then I restored that which I took not away.
6O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my transgressions are not hidden from thee.
7Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord of hosts, be ashamed on my account: let not them that seek thee, be ashamed on my account, O God of Israel.
8For I have suffered reproach for thy sake; shame has covered my face.
9I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.
