Salmos 69:7 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 69:7

Because for thy sake I have borne reproach
Being reckoned a sinner, called a deceiver, said to be a Samaritan, and to have a devil; with many other reproaches, which he bore patiently for the sake of the word and worship of God, and for the sake of the glory of God, which he all along sought; and to repair the loss of it, which was sustained through the sin of man;

shame hath covered my face;
when he was spit upon by some, and smote by others with a rod upon his cheek; and when he was blindfolded, and bid to prophesy who smote him; see ( Isaiah 50:6 ) .

6 No sean avergonzados por mi causa los que te esperan, oh Señor Jehová de los ejércitos; No sean confusos por mí los que te buscan, oh Dios de Israel.

7 Porque por amor de ti he sufrido afrenta; Confusión ha cubierto mi rostro.

8 He sido extrañado de mis hermanos, Y extraño á los hijos de mi madre.

9 Porque me consumió el celo de tu casa; Y los denuestos de los que te vituperaban, cayeron sobre mí.
