Psa 44:1 To the chief musician. A Contemplation for the Sons of Korah. We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work You did in their days, in the days of old.
\nPsa 44:2 You drove out nations with Your hand and planted them. You brought evil on peoples and sent them out.
\nPsa 44:3 For they did not inherit the land with their own sword; yea, their own arm did not save them. But it was Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your face, because You favored them.
\nPsa 44:4 You are He, my King, O God; command deliverances for Jacob.
\nPsa 44:5 Through You we will push our enemies; through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.
\nPsa 44:6 For I will not trust in my bow, and my sword shall not save me.
\nPsa 44:7 But You have saved us from our adversaries and have put to shame those who hate us.
\nPsa 44:8 We boast in God all the day; and we praise Your name forever. Selah.
\nPsa 44:9 Now You have cast us off and have shamed us. And You do not go forth with our armies.
\nPsa 44:10 You make us turn back from the oppressor; yea, those hating us plunder for themselves.
\nPsa 44:11 You have given us like sheep for food and have scattered us among the nations.
\nPsa 44:12 For no gain You have sold Your people, and You are not increased by their price.
\nPsa 44:13 You made us a disgrace to our neighbors, a scorn and a mockery to those around us.
\nPsa 44:14 You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
\nPsa 44:15 My humiliation is before me all the day; yea, the shame of my face covers me,
\nPsa 44:16 because of the slanderer’s voice and the blasphemer, before the face of the enemy and avenger.
\nPsa 44:17 All this has come upon us, and we have not forgotten You nor dealt falsely with Your covenant.
\nPsa 44:18 Our heart has not turned back, and our steps have not swerved from Your way,
\nPsa 44:19 though You have crushed us in the place of jackals and covered us over with the death-shade.
\nPsa 44:20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, and have spread our hands to an alien god,
\nPsa 44:21 shall not God search this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.
\nPsa 44:22 Yea, for Your sake we are slain all the day; we are counted as sheep of slaughter.
\nPsa 44:23 Be aroused! Why do You sleep, O God? Awake! Do not cast us off forever.
\nPsa 44:24 Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and distress?
\nPsa 44:25 For our soul bows down to the dust; our belly holds fast to the earth.
\nPsa 44:26 Arise for our help and redeem us for the sake of Your mercy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
