Psalm 44 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Psa 44:1

Psa 44:1(LXX 43:1) For the end, a Psalm for [fn]instruction, for the sons of Core. (43:2) O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us, the work which thou wroughtest in their days, in the days of old.

Psa 44:2

Psa 44:2(LXX 43:3) Thine hand utterly destroyed the heathen, and thou didst plant them: thou didst afflict the nations, and cast them out.

Psa 44:3

Psa 44:3(LXX 43:4) For they inherited not the land by their own sword, and their own arm did not deliver them; but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou wert well pleased in them.

Psa 44:4

Psa 44:4(LXX 43:5) Thou art indeed my King and my God, who commandest deliverances for Jacob.

Psa 44:5

Psa 44:5(LXX 43:6) In thee will we push down our enemies, and in thy name will we bring to nought them that rise up against us.

Psa 44:6

Psa 44:6(LXX 43:7) For I will not trust in my bow, and my sword shall not save me.

Psa 44:7

Psa 44:7(LXX 43:8) For thou hast saved us from them that afflicted us, and hast put to shame them that hated us.

Psa 44:8

Psa 44:8(LXX 43:9) In God [fn]will we make our boast all the day, and to thy name will we give thanks for ever. Pause.

Psa 44:9

Psa 44:9(LXX 43:10) But now thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and thou wilt not go forth with our hosts.

Psa 44:10

Psa 44:10(LXX 43:11) Thou hast turned us back before our enemies; and they that hated us spoiled for themselves.

Psa 44:11

Psa 44:11(LXX 43:12) Thou madest us as sheep for meat; and thou scatteredst us among the nations.

Psa 44:12

Psa 44:12(LXX 43:13) Thou hast sold thy people without price, and there was no profit by their exchange.

Psa 44:13

Psa 44:13(LXX 43:14) Thou hast made us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.

Psa 44:14

Psa 44:14(LXX 43:15) Thou hast made us a proverb among the Gentiles, a shaking of the head among the nations.

Psa 44:15

Psa 44:15(LXX 43:16) All the day my shame is before me, and the confusion of my face has covered me,

Psa 44:16

Psa 44:16(LXX 43:17) because of the voice of the slanderer and reviler; because of the enemy and avenger.

Psa 44:17

Psa 44:17(LXX 43:18) All these things are come upon us: but we have not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt unrighteously in thy covenant.

Psa 44:18

Psa 44:18(LXX 43:19) And our heart has not gone back; but thou hast turned aside our paths from thy way.

Psa 44:19

Psa 44:19(LXX 43:20) For thou hast laid us low in a place of affliction, and the shadow of death has covered us.

Psa 44:20

Psa 44:20(LXX 43:21) If we have forgotten the name of our God, and if we have spread out our hands to a strange god; shall not God search these things out?

Psa 44:21

Psa 44:21(LXX 43:22) for he knows the secrets of the heart.

Psa 44:22

Psa 44:22(LXX 43:23) [fn] For, for thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for slaughter.

Psa 44:23

Psa 44:23(LXX 43:24) Awake, wherefore sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, and do not cast us off for ever.

Psa 44:24

Psa 44:24(LXX 43:25) Wherefore turnest thou thy face away, and forgettest our poverty and our affliction?

Psa 44:25

Psa 44:25(LXX 43:26) For our soul has been brought down to the dust; our belly has cleaved to the earth.

Psa 44:26

Psa 44:26(LXX 43:27) Arise, O Lord, help us, and redeem us for thy name's sake.
