¹³ Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a reproach to our surrounders.

⁴ We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a derision to our surrounders.

⁶ Thou makest us a strife to our neighbors, And our enemies mock at it.

³⁷ and thou hast been for an astonishment, for a simile, and for a byword among all the peoples whither Jehovah doth lead thee.

⁴¹ Spoiled him have all passing by the way, He hath been a reproach to his neighbours,

⁵¹ Wherewith Thine enemies reproached, O Jehovah, Wherewith they have reproached The steps of Thine anointed.

³ Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been filled with contempt,

⁴ Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!

⁹ And I have given them for a trembling, For evil -- to all kingdoms of the earth, For a reproach, and for a simile, For a byword, and for a reviling, In all the places whither I drive them.

²⁷ And was not Israel the derision to thee? Among thieves was he found? For since thy words concerning him, Thou dost bemoan thyself.

¹⁹ And I scatter them among nations, And they are spread through lands, According to their way, and according to their doings, I have judged them.

²⁰ And one goeth in unto the nations whither they have gone, And they pollute My holy name by saying to them, The people of Jehovah `are' these, And from His land they have gone forth.

²¹ And I have pity on My holy name, That the house of Israel have polluted among nations whither they have gone in.

²² Therefore, say to the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Not for your sake am I working, O house of Israel, But -- for My holy name, That ye have polluted among nations whither ye have gone in.

²³ And I have sanctified My great name, That is profaned among nations, That ye have polluted in your midst, And known have the nations that I `am' Jehovah, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In My being sanctified in you before your eyes.
