Psalms 44

  1. \44:1\To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
  2. \44:2\How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and didst plant them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
  3. \44:3\For they obtained not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favor to them.
  4. \44:4\Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
  5. \44:5\Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name we will tread them under that rise up against us.
  6. \44:6\For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
  7. \44:7\But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
  8. \44:8\In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
  9. \44:9\But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
  10. \44:10\Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they who hate us plunder for themselves.
  11. \44:11\Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for food; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
  12. \44:12\Thou sellest thy people for naught, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
  13. \44:13\Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to them that are around us.
  14. \44:14\Thou makest us a by-word among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
  15. \44:15\My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
  16. \44:16\For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
  17. \44:17\All this is come upon us; yet we have not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
  18. \44:18\Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
  19. \44:19\Though thou hast severely broke us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shades of death.
  20. \44:20\If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
  21. \44:21\Will not God search out this? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
  22. \44:22\Yes, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
  23. \44:23\Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
  24. \44:24\Why hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
  25. \44:25\For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth to the earth.
  26. \44:26\Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
