9
For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee have fallen upon me.
10
When I wept, [and chastened] my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
11
I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
12
They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I [was] the song of the drunkards.
13
But as for me, my prayer [is] to thee, O LORD, [in] an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
