American Standard Version
"That thou hast sore broken us in the place of jackals, And covered us with the shadow of death. "
— Psalms 44:19, American Standard Version
“Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.”
“Though you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.”
“Yet you have battered us, leaving us a heap of ruins overrun by wild dogs; you have covered us with darkness.”
“Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.”
“Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.”
For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth, By reason of the enemy and the avenger.
All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, Neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
Our heart is not turned back, Neither have our steps declined from thy way,
That thou hast sore broken us in the place of jackals, And covered us with the shadow of death.
If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
Will not God search this out? For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
