'Reproach' in the Bible
He that slandereth not with his tongue, Nor doeth evil to his friend, Nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor;
But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of men, and despised of the people.

Deliver me from all my transgressions: Make me not the reproach of the foolish.
As with a sword in my bones, mine adversaries reproach me, While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and a derision to them that are round about us.

Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: And I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; And for comforters, but I found none.
Let them be put to shame and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor that seek my hurt.
How long, O God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
And he smote his adversaries backward: He put them to a perpetual reproach.
We are become a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and derision to them that are round about us.
And render unto our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom Their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
All that pass by the way rob him: He is become a reproach to his neighbors.
Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty peoples,
Mine enemies reproach me all the day; They that are mad against me do curse by me.
I am become also a reproach unto them: When they see me, they shake their head.
Take away from me reproach and contempt; For I have kept thy testimonies.
Turn away my reproach whereof I am afraid; For thine ordinances are good.
