Psalms 44:17-22

17All this has happened though we have not forgotten you. We have not violated your covenant.

18Our hearts have not deserted you. We have not strayed from your path.

19Yet you have crushed us in the jackal’s desert home. You have covered us with darkness and death.

20If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread our hands in prayer to foreign gods,

21God would surely have known it, for he knows the secrets of every heart.

22But for your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.
