I was a joke to all my people, who make fun of me with songs all day long.
Those who captured us asked us to sing; our enemies wanted happy songs. They said, “Sing us a song about Jerusalem!”
You made us a joke to our neighbors; those around us laugh and make fun of us.
We are a joke to the other nations; they laugh and make fun of us.
Lord, you tricked me, and I was fooled. You are stronger than I am, so you won. I have become a joke; everyone makes fun of me all day long.
Moab, you made fun of Israel. Israel was caught in the middle of a gang of thieves. When you spoke about Israel, you shook your head and acted as if you were better than it.
Look! In everything they do they make fun of me with songs.
