9But thou hast pcast off, and put us to shame;

And qgoest not forth with our armies.

10Thou makest us to rturn back from the enemy:

And they which hate us spoil for themselves.

11sThou hast given us †like sheep appointed for meat;

And hast tscattered us among the heathen.

12uThou sellest thy people †for nought,

And dost not increase thy wealth by their xprice.

13Thou ymakest us zaa reproach to our neighbours,

aA scorn and a abderision to them that are round about us.

14Thou makest us ca byword among the heathen,

dA shaking of the head among the people.

15My confusion is continually before me,

And ethe shame of my face hath covered me,

16For the voice of him that reproacheth and fblasphemeth;

By reason of gthe enemy and avenger.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

But you have rejected us and disgraced us

and have not gone out with our armies.

You have made us turn back from the foe,

and those who hate us have gotten spoil.

You have made us like sheep for slaughter

and have scattered us among the nations.

You have sold your people for a trifle,

demanding no high price for them.

You have made us the taunt of our neighbors,

the derision and scorn of those around us.

You have made us a byword among the nations,

a laughingstock among the peoples.

All day long my disgrace is before me,

and shame has covered my face

at the sound of the taunter and reviler,

at the sight of the enemy and the avenger.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

But now you have rejected and humbled us;

you no longer go out with our armies.

You made us retreat before the enemy,

and our adversaries have plundered us.

You gave us up to be devoured like sheep

and have scattered us among the nations.

You sold your people for a pittance,

gaining nothing from their sale.

You have made us a reproach to our neighbors,

the scorn and derision of those around us.

You have made us a byword among the nations;

the peoples shake their heads at us.

I live in disgrace all day long,

and my face is covered with shame

at the taunts of those who reproach and revile me,

because of the enemy, who is bent on revenge.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

But you have rejected and humiliated us;

you do not march out with our armies.

You make us retreat from the foe,

and those who hate us

have taken plunder for themselves.

You hand us over to be eaten like sheep

and scatter us among the nations.

You sell your people for nothing;

you make no profit from selling them.

You make us an object of reproach to our neighbors,

a source of mockery and ridicule to those around us.

You make us a joke among the nations,

a laughingstock among the peoples.

My disgrace is before me all day long,

and shame has covered my face,

because of the taunts of the scorner and reviler,

because of the enemy and avenger.

NLTNew Living Translation

But now you have tossed us aside in dishonor.

You no longer lead our armies to battle.

You make us retreat from our enemies

and allow those who hate us to plunder our land.

You have butchered us like sheep

and scattered us among the nations.

You sold your precious people for a pittance,

making nothing on the sale.

You let our neighbors mock us.

We are an object of scorn and derision to those around us.

You have made us the butt of their jokes;

they shake their heads at us in scorn.

We can’t escape the constant humiliation;

shame is written across our faces.

All we hear are the taunts of our mockers.

All we see are our vengeful enemies.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Surely you have rejected and disgraced us,

and have not gone out with our armies.

You have caused us to pull back from the enemy,

and so those who hate us have plundered for themselves.

You have given us as sheep for food,

and among the nations you have scattered us.

You have sold your people cheaply,

and did not profit by their price.

You have made us a taunt to our neighbors,

a derision and a scorn to those around us.

You have made us a byword among the nations,

a shaking of the head among the peoples.

All day long my disgrace is before me,

and the shame of my face covers me,

because of the voice of the taunter and the reviler,

because of the enemy and the avenger.
