"We have become a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and derision to those who are around us."
— Psalms 79:4, World English Bible
“We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.”
“We are become a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and derision to them that are round about us. ”
“We have become an object of disdain to our neighbors; those who live on our borders taunt and insult us.”
“Convert us, O God: and shew us thy face, and we shall be saved.”
“We are looked down on by our neighbours, we are laughed at and made sport of by those who are round us.”
“We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.”
God, the nations have come into your inheritance. They have defiled your holy temple. They have laid Jerusalem in heaps.
They have given the dead bodies of your servants to be food for the birds of the sky, the flesh of your saints to the animals of the earth.
Their blood they have shed like water around Jerusalem. There was no one to bury them.
We have become a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and derision to those who are around us.
How long, Yahweh? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?
Pour out your wrath on the nations that don't know you; on the kingdoms that don't call on your name;
For they have devoured Jacob, and destroyed his homeland.
