Psalms 44 — Context

15

All day long I feel humiliated and am overwhelmed with shame,

16

before the vindictive enemy who ridicules and insults me.

17

All this has happened to us, even though we have not rejected you or violated your covenant with us.

18

We have not been unfaithful, nor have we disobeyed your commands.

19

Yet you have battered us, leaving us a heap of ruins overrun by wild dogs; you have covered us with darkness.

20

If we had rejected our God, and spread out our hands in prayer to another god,

21

would not God discover it, for he knows one’s thoughts?
