People insult me.
    They think that I am worth nothing.
It seems that I am only a worm,
    and I am not really a man.
Everyone that sees me laughs at me.
They laugh and they shake their heads.
They say, ‘He should trust in the Lord!
    The Lord should save him.
If the Lord is really happy with him,
    the Lord should rescue him.’
