38
But you have rejected, you have spurned,
you have been very angry with your anointed one.
39
You have renounced the covenant with your servant
and have defiled his crown in the dust.
40
You have broken through all his walls
and reduced his strongholds to ruins.
41
All who pass by have plundered him;
he has become the scorn of his neighbors.
42
You have exalted the right hand of his foes;
you have made all his enemies rejoice.
43
You have turned back the edge of his sword
and have not supported him in battle.
44
You have put an end to his splendor
and cast his throne to the ground.
45
You have cut short the days of his youth;
you have covered him with a mantle of shame. Selah
