NET Bible
"If we had rejected our God, and spread out our hands in prayer to another god,"
— Psalms 44:20, NET Bible
“If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;”
“If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god; ”
“If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god;”
“If the name of our God has gone out of our minds, or if our hands have been stretched out to a strange god,”
“If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;”
All this has happened to us, even though we have not rejected you or violated your covenant with us.
We have not been unfaithful, nor have we disobeyed your commands.
Yet you have battered us, leaving us a heap of ruins overrun by wild dogs; you have covered us with darkness.
If we had rejected our God, and spread out our hands in prayer to another god,
would not God discover it, for he knows one’s thoughts?
Yet because of you we are killed all day long; we are treated like sheep at the slaughtering block.
Rouse yourself! Why do you sleep, O Lord? Wake up! Do not reject us forever!
