5Through you will we overcome our haters; by your name will they be crushed under our feet who are violent against us.
6I will not put faith in my bow, my sword will not be my salvation.
7But it is you who have been our saviour from those who were against us, and have put to shame those who had hate for us.
8Our pride is in God at all times, to his name we give praise for ever. (Selah.)
9But now you have sent us away from you, and put us to shame; you do not go out with our armies.
10Because of this we are turned back by the attacker: those who have hate for us take our goods for themselves.
11You have made us like sheep which are taken for meat; we are put to flight among the nations.
12You let your people go for nothing; your wealth is not increased by their price.
13You have made us to be looked down on by our neighbours, we are laughed at and shamed by those who are round about us.
14Our name is a word of shame among the nations, a sign for the shaking of heads among the peoples.
15My downfall is ever before me, and I am covered with the shame of my face;
16Because of the voice of him who says sharp and bitter words; because of the hater and him who is the instrument of punishment.
17All this has come on us, but still we have kept you in our memory; and we have not been false to your word.
