Psalm 44:14

Israel's Complaint

¹³
You have made us the reproach and taunt of our neighbors,
A scoffing and a derision to those around us.
¹⁴ 
You make us a byword among the nations,
A laughingstock among the people.

My dishonor is before me all day long,
And humiliation has covered my face,

Among the Nations

The joy of all the earth’?”
