Psalms:69:7-13

Seeker Overlay ON

* Because for thy sake I have borne reproach ; shame hath covered my face . * I am become a stranger unto my brethren , and an alien unto my mothers children . * For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up ; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me . * When I wept , and chastened my soul with fasting , that was to my reproach . * I made sackcloth also my garment ; and I became a proverb to them . * They that sit in the gate speak against me ; and I was the song of the drunkards . * But as for me , my prayer is unto thee , O LORD , in an acceptable time : O God , in the multitude of thy mercy hear me , in the truth of thy salvation .
