⁷ You deceived me, Lord, and I was deceived.
You seized me and prevailed.
I am a laughingstock all the time;^(A)
everyone ridicules me.

⁷ During the days of her affliction and homelessness^(A)
Jerusalem remembers all her precious belongings
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into the adversary’s hand,
she had no one to help.
The adversaries looked at her,
laughing over her downfall.
