8Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
9I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to the sons of my mother.
10For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up: and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
11And I covered my soul in fasting: and it was made a reproach to me.
12And I made haircloth my garment: and I became a byword to them.
13They that sat in the gate spoke against me: and they that drank wine made me their song.
14But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O Lord; for the time of thy good pleasure, O God. In the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
15Draw me out of the mire, that I may not stick fast: deliver me from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
16Let not the tempest of water drown me, nor the deep swallow me up: and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
17Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is kind; look upon me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
18And turn not away thy face from thy servant: for I am in trouble, hear me speedily.
19Attend to my soul, and deliver it: save me because of my enemies.
20Thou knowest my reproach, and my confusion, and my shame.
21In thy sight are all they that afflict me; my heart hath expected reproach and misery. And I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.
