Psalms 44:10-14

Context

44:10 You made us retreat 1  from the enemy.

Those who hate us take whatever they want from us. 2 

44:11 You handed us 3  over like sheep to be eaten;

you scattered us among the nations.

44:12 You sold 4  your people for a pittance; 5 

you did not ask a high price for them. 6 

44:13 You made us 7  an object of disdain to our neighbors;

those who live on our borders taunt and insult us. 8 

44:14 You made us 9  an object of ridicule 10  among the nations;

foreigners treat us with contempt. 11
