Psalm 69:10

When I wept in my soul with fasting,
It became my reproach.

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth;
I humbled my soul with fasting,
And my prayer kept returning to my bosom.

My enemies have reproached me all day long;
Those who deride me have used my name as a curse.

My knees are weak from fasting,
And my flesh has grown lean, without fatness.

For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’

When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

My enemies have reproached me all day long;
Those who

deride me have used my name as a curse.

My knees are weak from fasting,
And my flesh has grown lean, without fatness.

For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
