Psalms 69:11 Context
9For the zeale of thine house hath eaten mee vp; and the reproches of them that reproched thee, are fallen vpon me. 10When I wept, and chastened my soule with fasting, that was to my reproch. 11I made sackecloth also my garment: & I became a prouerbe to them. 12They that sit in the gate, speake against mee; and I was the song of the drunkards. 13But as for mee, my prayer is vnto thee, O Lord, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercie heareme, in the trueth of thy saluation.
