7It is for your sake that I have borne reproach,

that shame has covered my face.*

an alien to my mother’s children.*

9It is zeal for your house that has consumed me;

the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.*

have fallen on me.

For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up;

And the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
