20If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
21Will not God search this out? For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
23Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise, cast [us] not off for ever.
24Wherefore hidest thou thy face, And forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25For our soul is bowed down to the dust: Our body cleaveth unto the earth.
26Rise up for our help, And redeem us for thy lovingkindness` sake. Psalm 45 For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim. [A Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves.
