20If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
21Won`t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
22Yes, for your sake are we killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.
23Wake up! Why do you sleep, Lord? Arise! Don`t reject us forever.
24Why do you hide your face, And forget our affliction and our oppression?
25For our soul is bowed down to the dust. Our body cleaves to the earth.
26Rise up to help us. Redeem us for your lovingkindness` sake. Psalm 45 For the Chief Musician. Set to "The Lilies." A contemplation by the sons of Korah. A wedding song.
