And now I have become their song, and I am a byword to them.
Look at their sitting down and their rising up; I am their song.
But He has made me a byword of the people, whereas in former times I was as a drum.
I have been a mockery to all my people, Their mocking song all the day.
You make us a proverb among the nations, A shaking of the head among the peoples.
I have become a laughing-stock to my friends – one who has called on Eloah and He answered him! A laughing-stock is the righteous, the perfect one!
sons of fools, even sons without a name, they have been whipped out of the land.
All our enemies have opened their mouth against us.
O יהוה, You enticed me, and I was enticed. You are stronger than I, and have prevailed. I have been ridiculed all day long, everyone mocks me.
