9. Passion for your house has consumed me,and the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.
10. When I weep and fast,they scoff at me.
11. When I dress in burlap to show sorrow,they make fun of me.
12. I am the favorite topic of town gossip,and all the drunks sing about me.
13. But I keep praying to you, lord,hoping this time you will show me favor.In your unfailing love, O God,answer my prayer with your sure salvation.
