Psalm 44:14

Israel's Complaint

¹³ Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and a derision to them that are round about us. ¹⁴ Thou makest us a byword among the nations, A shaking of the head among the peoples. ¹⁵ All the day long is my dishonor before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me,
