5. With you we can walk over our enemies.With your name we can trample those who attack us.
6. I do not rely on my bow,and my sword will never save me.
7. But you saved us from our enemies.You put to shame those who hate us.
8. All day long we praise our God.We give thanks to you forever. Selah
9. But now you have rejected and disgraced us.You do not even go along with our armies.
10. You make us retreat from the enemy.Those who hate us rob us at will.
11. You hand us over to be butchered like sheepand scatter us among the nations.
12. You sell your people for almost nothing,and at that price you have gained nothing.
13. You made us a disgrace to our neighborsand an object of ridicule and contempt to those around us.
14. You made our ⌊defeat⌋ a proverb among the nationsso that people shake their heads at us.
15. All day long my disgrace is in front of me.Shame covers my face
16. because of the words of those who insult and slander us,because of the presence of the enemy and the avenger.
