New International Version (NIV)

11Because of all my enemies,

I am the utter contempt of my neighbors

and an object of dread to my closest friends—

those who see me on the street flee from me.

11Because of all my adversaries, I have become a disgrace,

Especially to my neighbors,

And an object of dread to my acquaintances;

Those who see me in the street flee from me.

11Because of all my adversaries, I have become a reproach,

Especially to my neighbors,

And an object of dread to my acquaintances;

Those who see me in the street flee from me.

11Because of all my enemies I have become a reproach and disgrace,

Especially to my neighbors,

And an object of dread to my acquaintances;

Those who see me on the street run from me.

11Among all my enemies I am a disgrace,

and among my neighbors even more.

I am dreaded by my friends —

they flee when they see me on the street.

11My neighbors make fun of me

because I have so many enemies.

My closest friends are afraid of me.

People who see me on the street run away from me.
