7 But you saved usfrom our hateful enemies,and you put them to shame.
8 We boast about you, our God,and we are always grateful.
9 But now you have rejected us;you don't lead us into battle,and we look foolish.
10 You made us retreat,and our enemies have takeneverything we own.
11 You let us be slaughteredlike sheep,and you scattered usamong the nations.
12 You sold your peoplefor little or nothing,and you earned no profit.
13 You made us look foolishto our neighbours,and people who live nearbyinsult us and sneer.
