9
But now you have sent us away from you, and put us to shame; you do not go out with our armies.
10
Because of this we are turned back by the attacker: those who have hate for us take our goods for themselves.
11
You have made us like sheep which are taken for meat; we are put to flight among the nations.
12
You let your people go for nothing; your wealth is not increased by their price.
13
You have made us to be looked down on by our neighbours, we are laughed at and shamed by those who are round about us.
14
Our name is a word of shame among the nations, a sign for the shaking of heads among the peoples.
15
My downfall is ever before me, and I am covered with the shame of my face;
16
Because of the voice of him who says sharp and bitter words; because of the hater and him who is the instrument of punishment.
17
All this has come on us, but still we have kept you in our memory; and we have not been false to your word.
18
Our hearts have not gone back, and our steps have not been turned out of your way;
19
Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.
