gltv@Psalms:44:1 @ To the chief musician. A Contemplation for the Sons of Korah. We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work You did in their days, in the days of old.

gltv@Psalms:44:2 @ You drove out nations with Your hand and planted them. You brought evil on peoples and expelled them.

gltv@Psalms:44:3 @ For they did not inherit the land with their own sword; yea, their own arm did not save them. But it was Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your face, because You favored them.

gltv@Psalms:44:5 @ Through You we will push our enemies; through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.

gltv@Psalms:44:6 @ For I will not trust in my bow, and my sword shall not save me.

gltv@Psalms:44:14 @ You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.

gltv@Psalms:44:15 @ My humiliation is before me all the day; yea, the shame of my face covers me,

gltv@Psalms:44:16 @ because of the slanderer's voice and the blasphemer, before the face of the enemy and avenger.

gltv@Psalms:44:17 @ All this has come upon us, and we have not forgotten You nor dealt falsely with Your covenant.

gltv@Psalms:44:18 @ Our heart has not turned back, and our steps have not swerved from Your way,

gltv@Psalms:44:20 @ If we have forgotten the name of our God, and have spread our hands to an alien god,

gltv@Psalms:44:21 @ shall not God search out this? For He knows the secrets of the heart.

gltv@Psalms:44:22 @ Yea, for Your sake we are slain all the day long; we are counted as sheep of slaughter.

gltv@Psalms:44:23 @ Be aroused! Why do You sleep, O God? Awake! Do not cast us off forever.

gltv@Psalms:44:24 @ Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and distress?

gltv@Psalms:44:25 @ For our soul bows down to the dust; our belly holds fast to the earth.

gltv@Psalms:44:26 @ Arise for our help and redeem us for the sake of Your mercy.
