Contextual Overview

9 But you have rejected us and shamed us. You don't march with our armies anymore. 10 You let our enemies push us back, and those who hate us have taken our wealth. 11 You gave us away like sheep to be eaten and have scattered us among the nations. 12 You sold your people for nothing and made no profit on the sale. 13 You made us a joke to our neighbors; those around us laugh and make fun of us. 14 You made us a joke to the other nations; people shake their heads. 15 I am always in disgrace, and I am covered with shame. 16 My enemy is getting even with insults and curses.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours,.... Which is the common lot of Christians: Christ and his apostles have given reason for the saints in all ages to expect it, and have fortified their minds to bear it patiently, yea, to esteem it an honour, and greater riches than the treasures of the antichristian Egypt;

a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us; being always represented as mean and despicable, and reckoned ignorant and accursed, and as the faith of the world, and the offscouring of all things.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors - Compare the notes at Psalms 39:8. The word neighbors here refers to surrounding people or nations. They were reproached, scorned, and derided as forsaken by God, and given up to their foes. They no longer commanded the admiration of mankind as a prosperous, favored, happy people. Surrounding nations treated them with contempt as inspiring no fear, and as having nothing to entitle them to respect.
