5O God, you know my folly, my guilt is not hidden from you.
6Through me let not any be shamed, who wait for you, Lord God of hosts. Through me let not those be confounded who seek you, O God of Israel.
7It's in your cause that I have borne taunts, and my face has been covered with shame;
8I became to my kindred a foreigner, to my mother's sons a stranger.
9It was zeal for your house that consumed me, and the insults they hurled at you fell upon me.
10When I chastened myself with fasting, they took occasion to taunt me.
11When I put on a garment of sackcloth, they made me the theme of a taunt-song.
12Those who sit in the gate make sport of me in the music of drunken songs.
