Psalm 69:9-11
New Catholic Bible
9 I have become alienated from my brothers,[a]
a stranger to my mother’s sons.
10 Zeal for your house[b] consumes me,
and the insults directed at you fall on me.
11 When I mortified myself with fasting,
I exposed myself to scorn.
Footnotes
- Psalm 69:9 I have become alienated from my brothers: i.e., he is mocked by them; this text lies behind Jn 7:5, where Jesus’ relatives (“brothers”) do not believe in him.
- Psalm 69:10 Zeal for your house: cited in Jn 2:17 with reference to Jesus. Insults directed at you: cited in Rom 15:3 as an example of Jesus’ selflessness.
