Bible verse
Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of drunkards.
Psalm 69:12 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 69.
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.
10 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.
13 But my prayer to You, O LORD, is for a time of favor. In Your abundant loving devotion, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation.
14 Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink; deliver me from my foes and out of the deep waters.
15 Do not let the floods engulf me or the depths swallow me up; let not the Pit close its mouth over me.
16 Answer me, O LORD, for Your loving devotion is good; turn to me in keeping with Your great compassion.
