'Taunt' in the Bible

He was hired for this reason, that I would be frightened and do as he said and sin, so that they would have [grounds to make] a malicious report in order to censure and disgrace me.

As a crushing of my bones [with a sword], my adversaries taunt me,While they say continually to me, “Where is your God?”

You have made us the reproach and taunt of our neighbors,A scoffing and a derision to those around us.

Because for Your sake I have borne reproach;Confusion and dishonor have covered my face.

We have become an object of taunting to our neighbors [because of our humiliation],A derision and mockery to those who encircle us.

My enemies taunt me all day long;Those who ridicule me use my name as a curse.

I also have become a reproach and an object of taunting to others;When they see me, they shake their heads [in derision].

So I will have an answer for the one who taunts me,For I trust [completely] in Your word [and its reliability].

I will make them a focus of ridicule and disappointment [tossed back and forth] among all the kingdoms of the earth, a [notorious] disgrace, a byword, a taunt and a curse in all places where I will scatter them.

For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “As My anger and My wrath have been poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so My wrath will be poured out on you when you enter Egypt. You will become detested, an object of horror, a curse and a people scorned; and you will no longer see this place.”

So it will be a disgrace, a taunt, a warning and an object of horror to the [pagan] nations who surround you when I execute judgments against you in anger and in wrath and in raging reprimands—I, the Lord, have spoken.

“Will all these [victims of his greed] not take up a taunting song against him,And in mocking derision against himSay, ‘Woe (judgment is coming) to him who increases that which is not his—How long [will he possess it]?And [woe to him who] makes himself wealthy with loans.’
