Yet You (A)have rejected us and brought us to (B)dishonor,
And (C)do not go out with our armies.
10 You cause us to (D)turn back from the enemy;
And those who hate us (E)have taken spoils for themselves.
11 You turn us over [a]to be eaten like (F)sheep,
And have (G)scattered us among the nations.
12 You (H)sell Your people [b]cheaply,
And have not [c]profited by their sale.
13 You make us an object of (I)reproach to our neighbors,
Of scoffing and (J)ridicule to those around us.
14 You make us (K)a proverb among the nations,
A [d](L)laughingstock among the peoples.
15 All day long my dishonor is before me
And [e]I am covered with my (M)humiliation,
16 Because of the voice of one who (N)taunts and reviles,
Because of the presence of the (O)enemy and the avenger.
