6. For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7. But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.
8. In God we have made our boast all day long, we will give thanks to your name forever. Selah.
9. But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and don’t go out with our armies.
10. You make us turn back from the adversary. Those who hate us take plunder for themselves.
11. You have made us like sheep for food, and have scattered us among the nations.
12. You sell your people for nothing, and have gained nothing from their sale.
13. You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.
14. You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15. All day long my dishonor is before me, and shame covers my face,
16. At the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses, because of the enemy and the avenger.
17. All this has come on us, yet have we not forgotten you, Neither have we been false to your covenant.
