# Psalm 44 (New King James Version)
|
|
Redemption Remembered in Present Dishonor
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 44
|
|
###### 1 We have heard with our ears, O God,
|
|
Our fathers have told us,
|
|
The deeds You did in their days,
|
|
In days of old:
|
|
|
|
###### 2 You drove out the nations with Your hand,
|
|
But them You planted;
|
|
You afflicted the peoples, and cast them out.
|
|
|
|
###### 3 For they did not gain possession of the land by their own sword,
|
|
Nor did their own arm save them;
|
|
But it was Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your countenance,
|
|
Because You favored them.
|
|
|
|
###### 4 You are my King, O God;
|
|
Command victories for Jacob.
|
|
|
|
###### 5 Through You we will push down our enemies;
|
|
Through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 For I will not trust in my bow,
|
|
Nor shall my sword save me.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 But You have saved us from our enemies,
|
|
And have put to shame those who hated us.
|
|
|
|
###### 8 In God we boast all day long,
|
|
And praise Your name forever. _Selah_
|
|
|
|
###### 9 But You have cast _us_ off and put us to shame,
|
|
And You do not go out with our armies.
|
|
|
|
###### 10 You make us turn back from the enemy,
|
|
And those who hate us have taken spoil for themselves.
|
|
|
|
###### 11 You have given us up like sheep _intended_ for food,
|
|
And have scattered us among the nations.
|
|
|
|
###### 12 You sell Your people for _next to_ nothing,
|
|
And are not enriched by selling them.
|
|
|
|
###### 13 You make us a reproach to our neighbors,
|
|
A scorn and a derision to those all around us.
|
|
|
|
###### 14 You make us a byword among the nations,
|
|
A shaking of the head among the peoples.
|
|
|
|
###### 15 My dishonor _is_ continually before me,
|
|
And the shame of my face has covered me,
|
|
|
|
###### 16 Because of the voice of him who reproaches and reviles,
|
|
Because of the enemy and the avenger.
|
|
|
|
###### 17 All this has come upon us;
|
|
But we have not forgotten You,
|
|
Nor have we dealt falsely with Your covenant.
|
|
|
|
###### 18 Our heart has not turned back,
|
|
Nor have our steps departed from Your way;
|
|
|
|
###### 19 But You have severely broken us in the place of jackals,
|
|
And covered us with the shadow of death.
|
|
|
|
###### 20 If we had forgotten the name of our God,
|
|
Or stretched out our hands to a foreign god,
|
|
|
|
###### 21 Would not God search this out?
|
|
For He knows the secrets of the heart.
|
|
|
|
###### 22 Yet for Your sake we are killed all day long;
|
|
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
|
|
|
|
###### 23 Awake! Why do You sleep, O Lord?
|
|
Arise! Do not cast _us_ off forever.
|
|
|
|
###### 24 Why do You hide Your face,
|
|
_And_ forget our affliction and our oppression?
|
|
|
|
###### 25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust;
|
|
Our body clings to the ground.
|
|
|
|
###### 26 Arise for our help,
|
|
And redeem us for Your mercies' sake.
