Psalm 44 :: King James Version (KJV)

Former Deliverances and Present Troubles.

Psa 44:1[[To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil.]] We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.

Psa 44:2

Psa 44:2How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

Psa 44:3

Psa 44:3For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.

Psa 44:4

Psa 44:4Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

Psa 44:5

Psa 44:5Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.

Psa 44:6

Psa 44:6For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

Psa 44:7

Psa 44:7But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.

Psa 44:8

Psa 44:8In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

Psa 44:9

Psa 44:9But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.

Psa 44:10

Psa 44:10Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.

Psa 44:11

Psa 44:11Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.

Psa 44:12

Psa 44:12Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.

Psa 44:13

Psa 44:13Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.

Psa 44:14

Psa 44:14Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.

Psa 44:15

Psa 44:15My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,

Psa 44:16

Psa 44:16For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.

Psa 44:17

Psa 44:17All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.

Psa 44:18

Psa 44:18Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;

Psa 44:19

Psa 44:19Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.

Psa 44:20

Psa 44:20If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;

Psa 44:21

Psa 44:21Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

Psa 44:22

Psa 44:22Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

Psa 44:23

Psa 44:23Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.

Psa 44:24

Psa 44:24Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?

Psa 44:25

Psa 44:25For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

Psa 44:26

Psa 44:26Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
