Psalms 69:12 in Context — Psalms 69

10 Car le zèle de ta maison me dévore, Et les outrages de ceux qui t’insultent tombent sur moi.

11 Je verse des larmes et je jeûne, Et c’est ce qui m’attire l’opprobre;

12 Je prends un sac pour vêtement, Et je suis l’objet de leurs sarcasmes.

13 Ceux qui sont assis à la porte parlent de moi, Et les buveurs de liqueurs fortes me mettent en chansons.

14 Mais je t’adresse ma prière, ô Éternel! Que ce soit le temps favorable, ô Dieu, par ta grande bonté! Réponds-moi, en m’assurant ton secours!
