⁴ I say to the men of pride, Let your pride be gone: and to the sinners, Let not your horn be lifted up.

⁵⁰ Keep in mind, O Lord, the shame of your servants, and how the bitter words of all the people have come into my heart;

⁵¹ The bitter words of your haters, O Lord, shaming the footsteps of your king.

⁵ Now then, what have I here? says the Lord, for my people are taken away without cause; they are made waste and give cries of sorrow, says the Lord, and all the day the nations put shame on my name.
