King James Version
"For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me."
— Psalms 69:9, King James Version
“For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up; And the reproaches of them that reproach thee are fallen upon me. ”
“For the zeal of your house consumes me. The reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.”
“Certainly zeal for your house consumes me; I endure the insults of those who insult you.”
“I am on fire with passion for your house; and the hard things which are said about you have come on me.”
“For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.”
Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord God of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
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 mother’s 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.
