You have shortenedthe daysof his youth;You have coveredhim with shame.Selah.
So Israelhas beenin rebellionagainst the houseof Davidto thisday.
He has weakenedmy strengthin the way;He has shortenedmy days.
Let my accusersbe clothedwith dishonor,And let them coverthemselves with their own shameas with a robe.
Alldaylong my dishonoris beforeme And my humiliationhas overwhelmedme,
Let those who are adversariesof my soulbe ashamed[and] consumed;Let them be coveredwith reproachand dishonor,who seekto injureme.
Your holypeoplepossessedYour sanctuaryfor a littlewhile,Our adversarieshave trodden[it] down.
Howthe Lordhas coveredthe daughterof ZionWith a cloudin His anger!He has castfrom heavento earthThe gloryof Israel,And has not rememberedHis footstoolIn the dayof His anger.
Then my enemywill see,And shamewill coverher who saidto me, "Whereis the LORDyour God?"My eyeswill lookon her; At that timeshe will be trampleddownLike mireof the streets.
