Psalm 69:6-8
New Catholic Bible
6 O God, you know how foolish I am;
my guilty deeds are not hidden from you.[a]
7 Do not allow those who hope in you
to be put to shame because of me,
O Lord of hosts.
Do not let those who seek you
suffer disgrace because of me,
O God of Israel.
8 It is for your sake that I endure reproach
and that shame covers my face.
