He hath made me as it were a byword of the common people. I am his jesting stock among them.

Now am I their song, and am become their jesting stock;

Thou makest us to be a byword among the Heathen, and that the people shake their heads at us.

Wherefore wentest thou away secretly, unknown to me, and didst not tell me, that I might have brought thee on the way with mirth, singing, timbrels and harps,

then I will weed Israel out of the land which I have given them. And this house which I have hallowed for my name, I will put out of my sight. And Israel shall be a proverb and a fable unto all nations.

In those companies are harps and lutes, tabrets and pipes, and wine. But they regard not the work of the LORD, and consider not the operation of his hands.
