When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

Verse 10 is found in chapter 69 of Psalms. Psalm 69 combines an extreme plea arising from persecution with a confession of zeal for God’s house. Deep waters and mud represent a situation in which the psalmist feels he is sinking without being able to escape. Suffering intensifies because enemies attack him unjustly. After asking for justice and deliverance, the prayer ends in praise and hope for Zion and for those who seek God.

Denn der Eifer um dein Haus hat mich gefressen; und die Schmähungen derer, die dich schmähen, sind auf mich gefallen.
Y lloré afligiendo con ayuno mi alma; Y esto me ha sido por afrenta.
Lloré y ayuné, y eso se convirtió en motivo de burla contra mí.
Je verse des larmes et je jeûne, Et c'est ce qui m'attire l'opprobre;
Io ho pianto, affliggendo l’anima mia col digiuno; Ma ciò mi è tornato in grande obbrobrio.
Quando chorei, e castiguei com jejum a minha alma, isto se me tornou em afrontas.
我哭泣,以禁食刻苦我心; 這倒成了我的羞辱。
