Psalm 69:7-9
New King James Version
7 Because for Your sake I have borne reproach;
Shame has covered my face.
8 (A)I have become a stranger to my brothers,
And an alien to my mother’s children;
9 (B)Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up,
(C)And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.
Psalm 69:19-21
New King James Version
19 You know (A)my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor;
My adversaries are all before You.
20 Reproach has broken my heart,
And I am full of [a]heaviness;
(B)I looked for someone to take pity, but there was none;
And for (C)comforters, but I found none.
21 They also gave me gall for my food,
(D)And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
