25  I am ^gan object of scorn to my accusers;

when they see me, they ^hwag their heads.

14  You have made us ^aa byword among the nations,

^ba laughingstock¹ among the peoples.

“She despises you, she scorns you—

^wthe virgin daughter of Zion;

she ^xwags her head behind you—

the daughter of Jerusalem.

“‘She despises you, she scorns you—

^xthe virgin daughter of Zion;

she wags her head behind you—

the daughter of Jerusalem.

15  All who pass along the way

clap their hands at you;

^fthey hiss and wag their heads

at the daughter of Jerusalem:

“Is this the city that was called

^gthe perfection of beauty,

^gthe joy of all the earth?”
