2 Surely there are mockers with me, My eye dwells on their provocation.
3 "Now give a pledge, be collateral for me with yourself. Who is there who will strike hands with me?
4 For you have hidden their heart from understanding, Therefore shall you not exalt them.
5 He who denounces his friends for a prey, Even the eyes of his children shall fail.
6 "But he has made me a byword of the people. They spit in my face.
7 My eye also is dim by reason of sorrow. All my members are as a shadow.
8 Upright men shall be astonished at this. The innocent shall stir up himself against the godless.
