'Among the Nations' in the Bible

Let the priests, the Lord’s ministers,weep between the portico and the altar.Let them say:“Have pity on Your people, Lord,and do not make Your inheritance a disgrace,an object of scorn among the nations.Why should it be said among the peoples,‘Where is their God?’”

The Lord answered His people:Look, I am about to send yougrain, new wine, and olive oil.You will be satiated with them,and I will no longer make youa disgrace among the nations.

Proclaim this among the nations:Prepare for holy war;rouse the warriors;let all the men of war advance and attack!
