Compare: Psalm 44

KJV

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.

KJV

[How] thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; [how] thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

KJV

For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.

KJV

Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

KJV

Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.

KJV

For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

KJV

But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.

KJV

In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

KJV

But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.

KJV

Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.

KJV

Thou hast given us like sheep [appointed] for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.

KJV

Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase [thy wealth] by their price.

KJV

Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.

KJV

Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.

KJV

My confusion [is] continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,

KJV

For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.

KJV

All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.

KJV

Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;

KJV

Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.

KJV

If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;

KJV

Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

KJV

Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

KJV

Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast [us] not off for ever.

KJV

Wherefore hidest thou thy face, [and] forgettest our affliction and our oppression?

KJV

For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

KJV

Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake.
