⁷ Because for Your sake I have borne reproach;
Shame has covered my face.
^8 (A)I have become a stranger to my brothers,
And an alien to my mother’s children;
^9 (B)Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up,
^(C)And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.

⁸ For when I spoke, I cried out;
^(A)I shouted, “Violence and plunder!”
Because the word of the Lord was made to me
A reproach and a derision daily.
