41. All those who pass by plunder him.He’s nothing but a joke to his neighbors.
42. You lifted high his foes’ strong hand.You gave all his enemies reason to celebrate.
43. Yes, you dulled the edge of his swordand didn’t support him in battle.
44. You’ve put an end to his splendor.You’ve thrown his throne to the ground.
45. You’ve shortened the prime of his life.You’ve wrapped him up in shame. Selah
46. How long will it last, Lord?Will you hide yourself forever?How long will your wrath burn like fire?
47. Remember how short my life is!Have you created humans for no good reason?
