^{40 Ref} Thou hast broken down all his hedges; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin.

^{41 Ref} All that pass by the way rob him: He is become a reproach to his neighbors.

^{42 Ref} Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

^{43 Ref} Yea, thou turnest back the edge of his sword, And hast not made him to stand in the battle.

^{44 Ref} Thou hast made his brightness to cease, And cast his throne down to the ground.

^{45 Ref} The days of his youth hast thou shortened: Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah
