5O God, thou knowest my foolishness; And my sins are not hid from thee.
6Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord God of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: Let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
7Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; Shame hath covered my face.
8I am become a stranger unto my brethren, And an alien unto my mother’s children.
9For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; And the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
