4We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a derision to our surrounders.


In Context

1 A Psalm of Asaph. O God, nations have come into Thy inheritance, They have defiled Thy holy temple, They made Jerusalem become heaps,

2 They gave the dead bodies of Thy servants Food for the fowls of the heavens, The flesh of Thy saints For the wild beast of the earth.

3 They have shed their blood As water round about Jerusalem, And there is none burying.

4 We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a derision to our surrounders.

5 Till when, O Jehovah? art Thou angry for ever? Thy jealousy doth burn as fire.

6 Pour Thy fury on the nations who have not known Thee, And on kingdoms that have not called in Thy name.
