Psalms 69:3-12

³(69-4) I am weary of my crying; my throat is dried; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

⁴(69-5) They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would cut me off, being mine enemies wrongfully, are many; should I restore that which I took not away?

⁵(69-6) O God, Thou knowest my folly; and my trespasses are not hid from Thee.

⁶(69-7) Let not them that wait for Thee be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of hosts; let not those that seek Thee be brought to confusion through me, O God of Israel.

⁷(69-8) Because for Thy sake I have borne reproach; confusion hath covered my face.

⁸(69-9) I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.

⁹(69-10) Because zeal for Thy house hath eaten me up, and the reproaches of them that reproach Thee are fallen upon me.

¹⁰(69-11) And I wept with my soul fasting, and that became unto me a reproach.

¹¹(69-12) I made sackcloth also my garment, and I became a byword unto them.

¹²(69-13) They that sit in the gate talk of me; and I am the song of the drunkards.
