Iscool,
I know J. Vernon McGee would agree with you
in applying every verse in Psalm 69 to Christ
(and I like him), but not every verse in Psalm
69 is quoted in the NT and certainly not this
one.
Most would consider the Psalm “indirectly Messianic.”
And, since it is primarily about King David, I
believe the specific verse you quoted is about
him.
As another example, 69:5 says “You know my folly, O God; my guilt is not hidden from you,” and it is clearly not
about Christ.
Best,
ampu, non-Roman, non-Orthodox

Every one is entitled to believe what ever they want...
Joh 2:17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.
Psa 69:9 For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
This is definately, without a doubt, Jesus Christ...
Apparently the apostles didn't have too much trouble believing it...Neither do I...
