39 You’ve canceled the covenant with your servant.You’ve thrown his crown in the dirt.
40 You’ve broken through all his walls.You’ve made his strongholds a pile of ruins.
41 All those who pass by plunder him.He’s nothing but a joke to his neighbors.
42 You lifted high his foes’ strong hand.You gave all his enemies reason to celebrate.
43 Yes, you dulled the edge of his swordand didn’t support him in battle.
44 You’ve put an end to his splendor.You’ve thrown his throne to the ground.
45 You’ve shortened the prime of his life.You’ve wrapped him up in shame. Selah
