41. All who pass by the way rob him.He has become a reproach to his neighbours.
42. You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries.You have made all of his enemies rejoice.
43. Yes, you turn back the edge of his sword,and haven’t supported him in battle.
44. You have ended his splendour,and thrown his throne down to the ground.
45. You have shortened the days of his youth.You have covered him with shame. Selah.
46. How long, Lord?Will you hide yourself forever?Will your wrath burn like fire?
47. Remember how short my time is!For what vanity have you created all the children of men!
48. What man is he who shall live and not see death,who shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah.
