Psalms 44:9-22

9But you have rejected us and disgraced us and have not gone out with our armies.

10You have made us turn back from the foe, and those who hate us have gotten spoil.

11You have made us like sheep for slaughter and have scattered us among the nations.

12You have sold your people for a trifle, demanding no high price for them.

13You have made us the taunt of our neighbors, the derision and scorn of those around us.

14You have made us a byword among the nations, a laughingstock among the peoples.

15All day long my disgrace is before me, and shame has covered my face

16at the sound of the taunter and reviler, at the sight of the enemy and the avenger.

17All this has come upon us, though we have not forgotten you, and we have not been false to your covenant.

18Our heart has not turned back, nor have our steps departed from your way;

19yet you have broken us in the place of jackals and covered us with the shadow of death.

20If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god,

21would not God discover this? For he knows the secrets of the heart.

22Yet for your sake we are killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.
