Psalms 69:4-9

⁴Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn’t take away.

⁵God, you know my foolishness. My sins aren’t hidden from you.

⁶Don’t let those who wait for you be shamed through me, Lord GOD of Hosts. Don’t let those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, God of Israel.

⁷Because for your sake, I have borne reproach. Shame has covered my face.

⁸I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother’s children.

⁹For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.
