5God, you know my foolishness. My sins aren`t hidden from you.
6Don`t let those who wait for you be put to shame through me, Lord Yahweh 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.
10When I wept and I fasted, That was to my reproach.
11When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.
