Psalms 69:7-12 ▼

7 For I have endured insults because of you, and shame has covered my face.

8 I have become a stranger to my brothers and a foreigner to my mother’s sons

9 because zeal for your house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.

10 I mourned and fasted, but it brought me insults.

11 I wore sackcloth as my clothing, and I was a joke to them.

12 Those who sit at the city gate talk about me, and drunkards make up songs about me.
