Psalm 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.

Psalm 44:13 In-Context

11 Tu nous fais reculer devant l'ennemi, et ceux qui nous haïssent ont pris leur butin.
12 Tu nous livres comme des brebis qu'on mange; tu nous as dispersés parmi les nations.
13 Tu vends ton peuple pour rien, et tu les mets à vil prix.
14 Tu fais de nous l'opprobre de nos voisins, la risée et le jouet de nos alentours.
15 Tu fais de nous la fable des nations; en nous voyant, les peuples hochent la tête.
