00:00.000 --> 00:05.700
Psalm 44, to the chief musician for the
Sons of Korah, Maskell.

00:07.120 --> 00:11.600
We have heard with our ears, O God,
our fathers have told us, what work thou

00:11.600 --> 00:13.620
didst in their days in the times of old.

00:14.900 --> 00:18.580
How thou didst drive out the heathen with
thy hand, and plantest them.

00:19.280 --> 00:21.520
How thou didst afflict the people,
and cast them out.

00:22.440 --> 00:26.440
For they got not the land in possession by
their own sword, neither did their own arm

00:26.440 --> 00:26.980
save them.

00:27.660 --> 00:31.300
But thy right hand, and thine arm,
and the light of thy countenance,

00:31.520 --> 00:33.120
because thou hadst a favor unto them.

00:34.140 --> 00:35.960
Thou art my king, O God.

00:36.680 --> 00:38.180
Command deliverances for Jacob.

00:39.360 --> 00:41.380
Through thee will we push down our
enemies.

00:42.360 --> 00:45.580
Through thy name will we tread them unto
that rise up against us.

00:46.500 --> 00:50.020
For I will not trust in my bow,
neither shall my sword save me.

00:50.520 --> 00:55.140
But thou hast saved us from our enemies,
and hast put them to shame that hated us.

00:56.240 --> 01:00.920
In God we boast all the day long,
and praise thy name forever, Selah.

01:01.660 --> 01:05.740
But thou hast cast off, and put us to
shame, and goest not forth with our

01:05.740 --> 01:06.080
armies.

01:07.120 --> 01:10.920
Thou makest us to turn back from the
enemy, and they which hate us spoil for

01:10.920 --> 01:11.300
themselves.

01:12.160 --> 01:16.400
Thou hast given us like sheep appointed
for meat, and hast scattered us among the

01:16.400 --> 01:16.660
heathen.

01:17.260 --> 01:21.220
Thou sellest thy people for naught,
and dost not increase thy wealth by their

01:21.220 --> 01:21.580
price.

01:22.440 --> 01:26.140
Thou makest us a reproach to our
neighbors, a scorn and a derision to them

01:26.140 --> 01:27.180
that are round about us.

01:27.960 --> 01:31.980
Thou makest us a byword among the heathen,
a shaking of the head among the people.

01:33.060 --> 01:37.020
My confusion is continually before me,
and the shame of my face hath covered me.

01:37.820 --> 01:42.100
For the voice of him that reproacheth and
blasphemeth, my reason of the enemy and

01:42.100 --> 01:44.840
avenger, all this is come upon us.

01:45.620 --> 01:49.100
Yet have we not forgotten thee,
neither have we dealt falsely in thy

01:49.100 --> 01:49.360
covenant.

01:50.440 --> 01:54.540
Our heart is not turned back, neither have
our steps declined from thy way.

01:55.480 --> 01:59.280
Though thou hast sore broken us in the
place of dragons, and covered us with the

01:59.280 --> 02:04.200
shadow of death, if we have forgotten the
name of our God, or stretched out our

02:04.200 --> 02:07.800
hands to a strange God, shall not God
search this out?

02:08.340 --> 02:10.660
For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

02:11.520 --> 02:14.340
Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the
day long.

02:14.800 --> 02:16.960
We are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

02:17.580 --> 02:20.300
Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord?

02:20.740 --> 02:22.700
Arise, cast us not off forever.

02:23.800 --> 02:27.140
Wherefore hidest thou thy face,
and forgettest our affliction and our

02:27.140 --> 02:27.460
oppression?

02:28.220 --> 02:33.020
For our soul is bowed down to the dust,
our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

02:34.100 --> 02:38.100
Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy
mercy's sake.
