5 God, you know what I have done wrong;I cannot hide my guilt from you.
6 Lord God All-Powerful,do not let those who hope in you be ashamed because of me.God of Israel,do not let your worshipers be disgraced because of me.
7 For you, I carry this shame,and my face is covered with disgrace.
8 I am like a stranger to my closest relativesand a foreigner to my mother’s children.
9 My strong love for your Temple completely controls me.When people insult you, it hurts me.
10 When I cry and fast,they make fun of me.
11 When I wear clothes of sadness,they joke about me.
