Psalms 69:7-12

1. 7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.

2. 8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.

3. 9 For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

4. 10 When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

5. 11 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.

6. 12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.
