"Rouse yourself! Why do you sleep, O Lord? Wake up! Do not reject us forever!"
— Psalms 44:23, NET Bible
“Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.”
“Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise, cast us not off for ever. ”
“Wake up! Why do you sleep, Lord? Arise! Don't reject us forever.”
“Why are you sleeping, O Lord? awake! and come to our help, do not give us up for ever.”
“Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.”
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!
Why do you look the other way, and ignore the way we are oppressed and mistreated?
For we lie in the dirt, with our bellies pressed to the ground.
Rise up and help us! Rescue us because of your loyal love!
