Verses from Psalms Chapter 69 of the book of Psalms in the Bible.

- 3. I got tired of crying; my throat became inflamed. My eyes weaken from waiting for my God.
- 4. Those who hate me without reason are more numerous than the hairs on my head; Many are those who seek to destroy me, those who attack me falsely. Should I return what I didn't steal?
- 5. You know my folly, O God; my sins are not hidden from you.
- 6. Do not be disappointed because of me, those who hope in you, O Lord, God of hosts! Do not be ashamed because of me, those who seek you, O God of Israel!
- 7. Because of you I have endured ridicule, shame covers my face.
- 8. I have become a stranger to my brothers, a stranger to my mother's children.
- 9. For zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall upon me.
- 10. When I cry and fast, they mock me.
- 11. When I dress in sackcloth, I become an object of ridicule.

- 19. You know how I suffer mockery, shame and humiliation; you know all my opponents.

- 21. They put gall in my food and to quench my thirst they gave me vinegar.
- 22. Let their table become a trap; let your prosperity become a trap.
- 23. Let their eyes be darkened, that they cannot see; make your hips shake continuously.
- 24. Pour out your wrath on them; may your burning fury reach them.

- 34. Let the heavens and the earth, the seas and everything that moves in them, praise him,
- 35. for God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah. The people will live there and take possession of the land;
- 36. the descendants of his servants will inherit it, and those who love his name will dwell in it.
