Salmos 44:13

13 Permites que nuestros vecinos se burlen de nosotros;
somos objeto de desprecio y desdén de quienes nos rodean.

Salmos 44:13 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:13

Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours
Which is the common lot of Christians: Christ and his apostles have given reason for the saints in all ages to expect it, and have fortified their minds to bear it patiently, yea, to esteem it an honour, and greater riches than the treasures of the antichristian Egypt; a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us;
being always represented as mean and despicable, and reckoned ignorant and accursed, and as the faith of the world, and the offscouring of all things.

Salmos 44:13 In-Context

11 Nos descuartizaste como a ovejas,
y nos esparciste entre las naciones.

12 Vendiste a tu precioso pueblo por una miseria
y no ganaste nada con la venta.

13 Permites que nuestros vecinos se burlen de nosotros;
somos objeto de desprecio y desdén de quienes nos rodean.

14 Nos has hecho el blanco de sus bromas;
menean la cabeza ante nosotros en señal de desprecio.

15 No podemos escapar de la constante humillación;
tenemos la vergüenza dibujada en el rostro.
