Psalms 69:10

FastingGriefShame

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

9 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.

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

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

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
