14 You have set us as a disgrace to our neighbors, a scoff and a derision to those who are around us.
15 You have set us as a parable among the Gentiles, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
16 All day long my shame is before me, and the confusion of my face has covered me,
17 before the voice of the reproacher and the commentator, before the face of the adversary and the pursuer.
18 All these things have come upon us, yet we have not forgotten you, and we have not acted unjustly in your covenant.
19 And our heart has not turned back. And you have not diverted our steps from your way.
20 For you humbled us in a place of affliction, and the shadow of death has covered us.
