Psalms 44
44:1

We have heard8085 with our ears,241 O Elohim,430 our fathers1 have told5608 us, what work6467 thou didst6466 in their days,3117 in the times3117 of old.6924

44:2

How thou didst drive out3423 the heathen1471 with thy hand,3027 and plantedst5193 them; how thou didst afflict7489 the people,3816 and cast them out.7971

44:3

For they got not the land776 in possession3423 by their own sword,2719 neither did their own arm2220 save3467 them: but thy right hand,3225 and thine arm,2220 and the light216 of thy countenance,6440 because thou hadst a favour7521 unto them.

44:4

Thou art my King,4428 O Elohim:430 command6680 deliverances3444 for Jacob.3290

44:5

Through thee will we push down5055 our enemies:6862 through thy name8034 will we tread them under947 that rise up6965 against us.

44:6

For I will not trust982 in my bow,7198 neither shall my sword2719 save3467 me.

44:7

But thou hast saved3467 us from our enemies,6862 and hast put them to shame954 that hated8130 us.

44:8

In Elohim430 we boast1984 all the day3117 long, and praise3034 thy name8034 for ever.5769 Selah.5542

44:9

But637 thou hast cast off,2186 and put us to shame;3637 and goest not forth3318 with our armies.6635

44:10

Thou makest us to turn7725 back268 from the enemy:6862 and they which hate8130 us spoil8154 for themselves.

44:11

Thou hast given5414 us like sheep6629 appointed for meat;3978 and hast scattered2219 us among the heathen.1471

44:12

Thou sellest4376 thy people5971 for nought,1952 and dost not increase7235 thy wealth by their price.4242

44:13

Thou makest7760 us a reproach2781 to our neighbours,7934 a scorn3933 and a derision7047 to them that are round about5439 us.

44:14

Thou makest7760 us a byword4912 among the heathen,1471 a shaking4493 of the head7218 among the people.3816

44:15

My confusion3639 is continually3605 before me, and the shame1322 of my face6440 hath covered3680 me,

44:16

For the voice6963 of him that reproacheth2778 and blasphemeth;1442 by reason6440 of the enemy341 and avenger.5358

44:17

All this is come upon us;935 yet have we not forgotten7911 thee, neither have we dealt falsely8266 in thy covenant.1285

44:18

Our heart3820 is not turned5472 back,268 neither have our steps838 declined5186 from thy way;734

44:19

Though thou hast sore broken1794 us in the place4725 of dragons,8577 and covered3680 us with the shadow of death.6757

44:20

If we have forgotten7911 the name8034 of our Elohim,430 or stretched out6566 our hands3709 to a strange2114 El;410

44:21

Shall not Elohim430 search this out?2713 for he knoweth3045 the secrets8587 of the heart.3820

44:22

Yea, for thy sake are we killed2026 all the day3117 long; we are counted2803 as sheep6629 for the slaughter.2878

44:23

Awake,5782 why sleepest3462 thou, O Yahweh?3068 arise,6974 cast us not off2186 for ever.5331

44:24

Wherefore hidest5641 thou thy face,6440 and forgettest7911 our affliction6040 and our oppression?3906

44:25

For our soul5315 is bowed down7743 to the dust:6083 our belly990 cleaveth1692 unto the earth.776

44:26

Arise6965 for our help,5833 and redeem6299 us for thy mercies'2617 sake.
