Suffering Reproach for God's Sake

Psalms 69:7-12

For I have endured scorn for Your sake, and shame has covered my face.

I have become a stranger to my brothers and a foreigner to my mother’s sons,

because zeal for Your house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult You have fallen on me.

I wept and fasted, but it brought me reproach.

I made sackcloth my clothing, and I was sport to them.

Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of drunkards.
