13. You make us a reproach to our neighbours,a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.
14. You make us a byword amongst the nations,a shaking of the head amongst the peoples.
15. All day long my dishonour is before me,and shame covers my face,
16. At the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses,because of the enemy and the avenger.
17. All this has come on us,yet have we not forgotten you,Neither have we been false to your covenant.
