Psalms 44 — Context

Our hearts have not gone back, and our steps have not been turned out of your way;

Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.

If the name of our God has gone out of our minds, or if our hands have been stretched out to a strange god,

Will not God make search for it? for he sees the secrets of the heart.

Truly, because of you we are put to death every day; we are numbered like sheep for destruction.

Why are you sleeping, O Lord? awake! and come to our help, do not give us up for ever.

Why is your face covered, and why do you give no thought to our trouble and our cruel fate?
