8I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.
9For the zeal of your house has eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen upon me.
10And I bowed down my soul with fasting, and that was made my reproach.
11And I put on sackcloth for my covering; and I became a proverb to them.
12They that sit in the gate talked against me, and they that drank wine sang against me.
13But I will cry to you, O Lord, in my prayer; O God, it is a propitious time: in the multitude of your mercy hear me, in the truth of your salvation.
14Save me from the mire, that I stick not in it: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and from the deep waters.
15Let not the waterflood drown me, nor let the deep swallow me up; neither let the well shut its mouth upon me.
16Hear me, O Lord; for your mercy is good: according to the multitude of your compassions look upon me.
17And turn not away your face from your servant; for I am afflicted: hear me speedily.
18Draw near to my soul and redeem it: deliver me because of my enemies.
19For you know my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; all that afflict me are before you.
20My soul has waited for reproach and misery; and I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; and for one to comfort me, but I found none.
21They gave me also gall for my food, and made me drink vinegar for my thirst.
