⁵⁰ Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Thy servants, I have borne in my bosom all the strivings of the peoples,

¹⁸ Remember this -- an enemy reproached Jehovah, And a foolish people have despised Thy name.

²² Arise, O God, plead Thy plea, Remember Thy reproach from a fool all the day.

⁹ For zeal for Thy house hath consumed me, And the reproaches of Thy reproachers Have fallen upon me.

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

¹⁴ Thou makest us a simile among nations, A shaking of the head among peoples.

¹⁵ All the day my confusion `is' before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me.

¹⁶ Because of the voice of a reproacher and reviler, Because of an enemy and a self-avenger.

¹⁹ Thou -- Thou hast known my reproach, And my shame, and my blushing, Before Thee `are' all mine adversaries.

²⁰ Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am sick, And I look for a bemoaner, and there is none, And for comforters, and I have found none.

¹⁰ Why do the nations say, `Where `is' their God?' Let be known among the nations before our eyes, The vengeance of the blood of Thy servants that is shed.

¹¹ Let the groaning of the prisoner come in before Thee, According to the greatness of Thine arm, Leave Thou the sons of death.

¹² And turn Thou back to our neighbours, Sevenfold unto their bosom, their reproach, Wherewith they reproached Thee, O Lord.

³ for even the Christ did not please himself, but, according as it hath been written, `The reproaches of those reproaching Thee fell upon me;'
