8In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah. 9But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies. Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they who hate us have taken spoil for themselves. 11Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for food; and hast scattered us among the heathen. 12Thou sellest thy people for nothing, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
