4More numerous than the hairs of my head are they who hate me without reason; Mighty are they who seek to destroy me, being my enemies without cause: I must restore what I took not away.
5O God! thou knowest my offences, And my sins are not hidden from thee!
6Let not them that trust in thee through me be put to shame, O Lord Jehovah, God of hosts! Let not them that seek thee through me be confounded, O God of Israel!
7For on account of thee do I suffer reproach, And shame covereth my face!
8I am become a stranger to my brothers; Yea, an alien to my mother's sons.
9For zeal for thy house consumeth me, And the reproaches of them that reproach thee fall upon me.
