Psalms 44:1-26 in American Standard Version (1901)

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, Our fathers have told us, What work thou didst in their days, In the days of old.
2 Thou didst drive out the nations with thy hand; But them thou didst plant: Thou didst afflict the peoples; But them thou didst spread abroad.
3 For they gat not the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own arm save them; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, Because thou wast favorable unto them.
4 Thou art my King, O God: Command deliverance for Jacob.
5 Through thee will we push down our adversaries: Through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, Neither shall my sword save me.
7 But thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And hast put them to shame that hate us.
8 In God have we made our boast all the day long, And we will give thanks unto thy name for ever. Selah
9 But now thou hast cast us off, and brought us to dishonor, And goest not forth with our hosts.
10 Thou makest us to turn back from the adversary; And they that hate us take spoil for themselves.
11 Thou hast made us like sheep appointed for food, And hast scattered us among the nations.
12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, And hast not increased thy wealth by their price.
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and a derision to them that are round about us.
14 Thou makest us a byword among the nations, A shaking of the head among the peoples.
15 All the day long is my dishonor before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me,
16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth, By reason of the enemy and the avenger.
17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, Neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
18 Our heart is not turned back, Neither have our steps declined from thy way,
19 That thou hast sore broken us in the place of jackals, And covered us with the shadow of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
21 Will not God search this out? For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise, cast us not off for ever.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, And forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: Our body cleaveth unto the earth.
26 Rise up for our help, And redeem us for thy lovingkindness’ sake.
Psalms 44 in American Standard Version (1901)

Psalms 44:1-26 in Brenton Septuagint Translation

1 For the end, for alternate strains by the sons of Core; for instruction, a Song concerning the beloved.
2 My heart has uttered a good matter: I declare my works to the king: my tongue is the pen of a quick writer.
3 Thou art more beautiful than the sons of men: grace has been shed forth on thy lips: therefore God has blessed thee for ever.
4 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O Mighty One, in thy comeliness, and in thy beauty;
5 and bend thy bow, and prosper, and reign, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall guide thee wonderfully.
6 Thy weapons are sharpened, Mighty One, (the nations shall fall under thee) they are in the heart of the king's enemies.
7 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness.
8 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness beyond thy fellows.
9 Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia are exhaled from thy garments, and out of the ivory palaces,
10 with which kings' daughters have gladdened thee for thine honour: the queen stood by on thy right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, and arrayed in divers colours.
11 Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; forget also thy people, and thy father's house.
12 Because the king has desired thy beauty; for he is thy Lord.
13 And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate thy favour.
14 All her glory is that of the daughter of the king of Esebon, robed as she is in golden fringed garments,
15 in embroidered clothing: virgins shall be brought to the king after her: her fellows shall be brought to thee.
16 They shall be brought with gladness and exultation: they shall be led into the king's temple.
17 Instead of thy fathers children are born to thee: thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
18 They shall make mention of thy name from generation to generation: therefore shall the nations give thanks to thee for ever, even for ever and ever.

1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
19 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies’ sake.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Translation for Translators

1 God, we ourselves have heard what our parents and grandparents told us. They told us about the miracles that you performed long ago.
2 They told us how you expelled the ungodly people and enabled us to live in their land. They told us that you punished those ungodly people and enabled your own people to prosper IDM.
3 It was not by using their own swords that they conquered the people that lived in that land, and it was not by their own power that they were victorious; it was only by your power MTY, DOU that they did those things; and they were sure that you were with them, and that showed that you were pleased with them.
4 You are my King and my God; it is you who enable us, your people MTY, to defeat our enemies.
5 It is by your power that we knock our enemies down and tramp on them.
6 I do not trust that I will be saved by using my bow and arrows and my sword.
7 No, it is you who have rescued us from our enemies, it is you who have caused those who hate us to become ashamed because they were defeated.
8 We have continually boasted about what God has done for us, and we will thank him MTY forever.
9 But now you have rejected us and caused us to be disgraced; when our armies march out to fight a battle, you no longer go with them.
10 You have caused us to run away from our enemies, with the result that they captured the things that belonged to us.
11 You have allowed us to become like MET sheep that were ready to be slaughtered; you scattered us far away among other nations.
12 It is as though MET you sold us, your people, to our enemies for a very small price, and you did not gain much profit from selling us!
13 People who live in nations near us make fun of us; they laugh at us and deride/belittle us.
14 They make jokes using the name of our country, they shake their heads to indicate that they despise us.
15 All day I feel disgraced; from seeing my face, people know that I am ashamed.
16 I hear what those who sneer at me and revile me say; I am ashamed in front of my enemies and those who want to harm me.
17 All these things have happened to us even though we have not forgotten you, and we are not the ones who disobeyed the agreement you made with our ancestors.
18 We have not stopped being loyal to you, and we have not stopped doing what you want us to do IDM.
19 But it is as though you have allowed us to be helpless among wild animals, and abandoned us in a deep dark ravine.
20 If we had forgotten to worship MTY our God, or if we had spread out our hands to worship a foreign god,
21 you certainly would have known that, because you know even what we secretly think.
22 But it is because we belong to you, that our enemies are constantly killing us. They act toward us as though we were only sheep to be slaughtered.
23 So, Yahweh, arise! Why are you asleep RHQ? Get up! Do not reject us forever!
24 Why are you not looking at us? Why are you forgetting that we are suffering and being oppressed by our enemies?
25 We are pushed down to the ground and we cannot get up.
26 Arise, and come and help us! Rescue us because you faithfully love us!

7 But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.
8 In God we have made our boast all day long. We will give thanks to your name forever. Selah.
9 But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and don’t go out with our armies.

14 You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15 All day long my dishonor is before me, and shame covers my face,
16 at the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses, because of the enemy and the avenger.
17 All this has come on us, yet we haven’t forgotten you. We haven’t been false to your covenant.
18 Our heart has not turned back, neither have our steps strayed from your path,
19 though you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread out our hands to a strange god,
21 won’t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
22 Yes, for your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Wake up! Why do you sleep, Lord? Arise! Don’t reject us forever.
24 Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?

Psalms 44:1-26 in Bible in Basic English

1 To the chief music-maker. Of the sons of Korah Maschil. It has come to our ears, O God, our fathers have given us the story, of the works which you did in their days, in the old times,
2 Uprooting the nations with your hand, and planting our fathers in their place; cutting down the nations, but increasing the growth of your people.
3 For they did not make the land theirs by their swords, and it was not their arms which kept them safe; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you had pleasure in them.
4 You are my King and my God; ordering salvation for Jacob.
5 Through you will we overcome our haters; by your name will they be crushed under our feet who are violent against us.
6 I will not put faith in my bow, my sword will not be my salvation.
7 But it is you who have been our saviour from those who were against us, and have put to shame those who had hate for us.
8 Our pride is in God at all times, to his name we give praise for ever. (Selah.)
9 But now you have sent us away from you, and put us to shame; you do not go out with our armies.
10 Because of this we are turned back by the attacker: those who have hate for us take our goods for themselves.
11 You have made us like sheep which are taken for meat; we are put to flight among the nations.
12 You let your people go for nothing; your wealth is not increased by their price.
13 You have made us to be looked down on by our neighbours, we are laughed at and shamed by those who are round about us.
14 Our name is a word of shame among the nations, a sign for the shaking of heads among the peoples.
15 My downfall is ever before me, and I am covered with the shame of my face;
16 Because of the voice of him who says sharp and bitter words; because of the hater and him who is the instrument of punishment.
17 All this has come on us, but still we have kept you in our memory; and we have not been false to your word.
18 Our hearts have not gone back, and our steps have not been turned out of your way;
19 Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.
20 If the name of our God has gone out of our minds, or if our hands have been stretched out to a strange god,
21 Will not God make search for it? for he sees the secrets of the heart.
22 Truly, because of you we are put to death every day; we are numbered like sheep for destruction.
23 Why are you sleeping, O Lord? awake! and come to our help, do not give us up for ever.
24 Why is your face covered, and why do you give no thought to our trouble and our cruel fate?
25 For our souls are crushed down to the dust: our bodies are stretched out on the earth.
26 Up! and come to our help, and give us salvation because of your mercy.
Psalms 44 in Bible in Basic English

Psalms 44:1-26 in Darby Translation

1 To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. An instruction. O God, with our ears have we heard, our fathers have told us, the work thou wroughtest in their days, in the days of old:
2 Thou, by thy hand, didst dispossess the nations, but them thou didst plant; thou didst afflict the peoples, but them didst thou cause to spread out.
3 For not by their own sword did they take possession of the land, neither did their own arm save them; but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst delight in them.
4 Thou thyself art my king, O God: command deliverance for Jacob.
5 Through thee will we push down our adversaries; through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6 For I will not put confidence in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 For thou hast saved us from our adversaries, and hast put them to shame that hate us.
8 In God will we boast all the day, and we will praise thy name for ever. Selah.
9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to confusion, and dost not go forth with our armies;
10 Thou hast made us to turn back from the adversary, and they that hate us spoil for themselves;
11 Thou hast given us over like sheep appointed for meat, and hast scattered us among the nations;
12 Thou hast sold thy people for nought, and hast not increased thy wealth by their price;
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a mockery and a derision for them that are round about us;
14 Thou makest us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15 All the day my confusion is before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16 Because of the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and the avenger.
17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely against thy covenant:
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy path;
19 Though thou hast crushed us in the place of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 If we had forgotten the name of our God, and stretched out our hands to a strange god,
21 Would not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 But for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are reckoned as sheep for slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleepest thou, Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust; our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26 Rise up for our help, and redeem us for thy loving-kindness' sake.
Psalms 44 in Darby Translation

Psalms 44:1-26 in Douay-Rheims 1899

1 Unto the end, for them that shall be changed, for the sons of Core, for understanding. A canticle for the Beloved.
2 My heart hath uttered a good word I speak my works to the king; My tongue is the pen of a scrivener that writeth swiftly.
3 Thou art beautiful above the sons of men: grace is poured abroad in thy lips; therefore hath God blessed thee for ever.
4 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O thou most mighty.
5 With thy comeliness and thy beauty set out, proceed prosperously, and reign. Because of truth and meekness and justice: and thy right hand shall conduct thee wonderfully.
6 Thy arrows are sharp: under thee shall people fall, into the hearts of the king’s enemies.
7 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of uprightness.
8 Thou hast loved justice, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
9 Myrrh and stacte and cassia perfume thy garments, from the ivory houses: out of which
10 The daughters of kings have delighted thee in thy glory. The queen stood on thy right hand, in gilded clothing; surrounded with variety.
11 Hearken, O daughter, and see, and incline thy ear: and forget thy people and thy father’s house.
12 And the king shall greatly desire thy beauty; for he is the Lord thy God, and him they shall adore.
13 And the daughters of Tyre with gifts, yea, all the rich among the people, shall entreat thy countenance.
14 All the glory of the king’s daughter is within in golden borders,
15 Clothed round about with varieties. After her shall virgins be brought to the king: her neighbours shall be brought to thee.
16 They shall be brought with gladness and rejoicing: they shall be brought into the temple of the king.
17 Instead of thy fathers, sons are born to thee: thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
18 They shall remember thy name throughout all generations. Therefore shall people praise thee for ever; yea, for ever and ever.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Free Bible Version

1 For the music director. A psalm (maskil) of the sons of Korah. God, we have heard with our own ears—our forefathers have told us—all you did in their times, long ago.
2 Through your power you drove out the other nations so you could settle our ancestors there; you defeated the nations and you sent our ancestors to occupy the land.
3 They did not conquer the land using their swords; it was not through their own strength that the victory was won—it was by your strength, your power, and your presence with them, because you loved them.
4 God, you are my King; command victories for Jacob!
5 Only through you can we repel our enemies; only in your name can we defeat our opponents.
6 I do not trust my bow; I do not have confidence in my sword to save me.
7 You are the one who saves us from our enemies; you defeat those who hate us.
8 God, we proudly thank you all day long, and praise your name forever. Selah.
9 But now you have rejected and disgraced us; you no longer accompany our armies.
10 You made us run from our enemies, and those who hate us have taken whatever they wanted.
11 You have handed us over like sheep to be slaughtered; you have scattered us among the other nations.
12 You have sold your own people for next to nothing, making no profit on the sale.
13 You have made a mockery of us before our neighbors, we are ridiculed and laughed at by those around us.
14 You have made us a joke to the other nations; they scornfully shake their heads at us.
15 We are humiliated all day long; we hold our heads in shame,
16 because of all the insults from the people mocking us, because our vengeful enemies are right in front of us.
17 All this has happened to us even though we didn't forget you; we haven't been unfaithful to the promises we made to you.
18 We have not turned away from you, not in thought, nor in action.
19 Even so, you crushed us, and made us into a jackal's den. You have covered us with the darkness of death.
20 If we had forgotten the name of our God, or worshiped other gods,
21 wouldn't God have been aware of this, because he knows everyone's thoughts?
22 But because of you we are killed all day long; we're considered just sheep to be slaughtered.
23 Lord, wake up! Why are you sleeping? Get up! Don't turn your back on us forever!
24 Why do you look away from us and take no notice of our suffering and misery?
25 We lie ruined in the dust, our bodies face down in the dirt.
26 Stand up! Come and help us! Save us because of your trustworthy love!

Psalms 44:1-26 in Geneva Bible 1599

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme to give instruction, committed to the sonnes of Korah. We haue heard with our eares, O God: our fathers haue tolde vs the workes, that thou hast done in their dayes, in the olde time:
2 Howe thou hast driuen out the heathen with thine hand, and planted them: how thou hast destroyed the people, and caused them to grow.
3 For they inherited not the lande by their owne sworde, neither did their owne arme saue them: but thy right hand, and thine arme and the light of thy countenance, because thou didest fauour them.
4 Thou art my King, O God: send helpe vnto Iaakob.
5 Through thee haue we thrust backe our aduersaries: by thy Name haue we troden downe them that rose vp against vs.
6 For I do not trust in my bowe, neither can my sworde saue me.
7 But thou hast saued vs from our aduersaries, and hast put them to confusion that hate vs.
8 Therefore will wee praise God continually, and will confesse thy Name for euer. Selah.
9 But now thou art farre off, and puttest vs to confusion, and goest not forth with our armies.
10 Thou makest vs to turne backe from the aduersary, and they, which hate vs, spoile for theselues.
11 Thou giuest vs as sheepe to bee eaten, and doest scatter vs among the nations.
12 Thou sellest thy people without gaine, and doest not increase their price.
13 Thou makest vs a reproche to our neighbours, a iest and a laughing stocke to them that are round about vs.
14 Thou makest vs a prouerbe among the nations, and a nodding of the head among the people.
15 My confusion is dayly before me, and the shame of my face hath couered me,
16 For the voyce of the slaunderer and rebuker, for the enemie and auenger.
17 All this is come vpon vs, yet doe wee not forget thee, neither deale wee falsly concerning thy couenant.
18 Our heart is not turned backe: neither our steps gone out of thy paths,
19 Albeit thou hast smitten vs downe into the place of dragons, and couered vs with the shadow of death.
20 If wee haue forgotten the Name of our God, and holden vp our hands to a strange god,
21 Shall not God searche this out? for hee knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Surely for thy sake are we slaine continually, and are counted as sheepe for the slaughter.
23 Vp, why sleepest thou, O Lord? awake, be not farre off for euer.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face? and forgettest our miserie and our affliction?
25 For our soule is beaten downe vnto the dust: our belly cleaueth vnto the ground.
26 Rise vp for our succour, and redeeme vs for thy mercies sake.

1 (44-1) For the Leader; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. (44-2) O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us; a work Thou didst in their days, in the days of old.
2 (44-3) Thou with Thy hand didst drive out the nations, and didst plant them in; Thou didst break the peoples, and didst spread them abroad.
3 (44-4) For not by their own sword did they get the land in possession, neither did their own arm save them; but Thy right hand, and Thine arm, and the light of Thy countenance, because Thou wast favourable unto them.
4 (44-5) Thou art my King, O God; command the salvation of Jacob.

8 (44-9) In God have we gloried all the day, and we will give thanks unto Thy name for ever. Selah
9 (44-10) Yet Thou hast cast off, and brought us to confusion; and goest not forth with our hosts.
10 (44-11) Thou makest us to turn back from the adversary; and they that hate us spoil at their will.
11 (44-12) Thou hast given us like sheep to be eaten; and hast scattered us among the nations.
12 (44-13) Thou sellest Thy people for small gain, and hast not set their prices high.
13 (44-14) Thou makest us a taunt to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14 (44-15) Thou makest us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15 (44-16) All the day is my confusion before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16 (44-17) For the voice of him that taunteth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and the revengeful.
17 (44-18) All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten Thee, neither have we been false to Thy covenant.
18 (44-19) Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from Thy path;
19 (44-20) Though Thou hast crushed us into a place of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 (44-21) If we had forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
21 (44-22) Would not God search this out? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 (44-23) Nay, but for Thy sake are we killed all the day; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 (44-24) Awake, why sleepest Thou, O Lord? Arouse Thyself, cast not off for ever.
24 (44-25) Wherefore hidest Thou Thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 (44-26) For our soul is bowed down to the dust; our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26 (44-27) Arise for our help, and redeem us for Thy mercy's sake.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Isaac Leeser Tanakh

1 “To the chief musician, for the sons of Korach, a Maskil.” (44:2) O God, with our ears have we heard, our fathers have told us, deeds which thou hadst done in their days, in times of old.
2 (44:3) Thou, with thy hand, didst indeed drive out nations, and plant them; thou didst ill-treat people, and cause them to spread out.
3 (44:4) For not by their sword did they obtain possession of the land, and their own arm brought them no victory; but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst given them thy favor.
4 (44:5) Thou art my King, O God: ordain salvation for Jacob.
5 (44:6) Through thee will we butt down our assailants: through thy name will we tread under foot our opponents.
6 (44:7) For not in my bow will I trust, and my sword shall not help me.
7 (44:8) But thou helpest us against our assailants, and those that hate us thou puttest to shame.
8 (44:9) Of God we boast all the day, and to thy name will we give thanks for ever. Selah.
9 (44:10) But now thou hast cast off, and put us to the blush, and goest not forth with our armies.
10 (44:11) Thou causest us to turn back from before our assailant: and they who hate us take spoil for themselves.
11 (44:12) Thou givest us up like sheep for food, and among the nations hast thou dispersed us.
12 (44:13) Thou sellest thy people for no value, and acquirest no gain by their price.
13 (44:14) Thou renderest us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to those that are round about us.
14 (44:15) Thou renderest us a by-word among the nations, a shaking of the head among the people.
15 (44:16) All the day is my disgrace before me, and the shame of my face covereth me;
16 (44:17) Because of the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and him that seeketh vengeance.
17 (44:18) All this is come over us, yet have we not forgotten thee; nor have we dealt falsely by thy covenant;
18 (44:19) Our heart is not moved backward, nor hath our step turned aside from thy path:
19 (44:20) Even when thou didst crush us in the abode of monsters, and cover us with the shadow of death.
20 (44:21) If we had forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange God:
21 (44:22) Would not God search out this? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 (44:23) But for thy sake are we slain all the day; we are counted as flocks destined for slaughter.
23 (44:24) Awake, wherefore wilt thou sleep, O Lord? arise, abandon us not for ever.
24 (44:25) Wherefore wilt thou hide thy face, wilt thou forget our misery, and our oppression?
25 (44:26) For our soul is bowed down to the dust; our body cleaveth unto the earth.
26 (44:27) Arise unto our help, and redeem us for the sake of thy kindness.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Updated Brenton English Septuagint

1 For the end, for alternate strains by the sons of Korah; for instruction, a Song concerning the beloved.
2 My heart has uttered a good matter: I declare my works to the king: My tongue is the pen of a quick writer.
3 Thou art more beautiful than the sons of men: Grace has been shed forth on thy lips: Therefore God has blessed thee forever.
4 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O Mighty One, In thy comeliness, and in thy beauty;
5 And bend thy bow, and prosper, and reign, Because of truth and meekness and righteousness; And thy right hand shall guide thee wonderfully.
6 Thy weapons are sharpened, Mighty One (The nations shall fall under thee); They are in the heart of the king’s enemies.
7 Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever: The scepter of thy kingdom is a scepter of righteousness.
8 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: Therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee With the oil of gladness beyond thy fellows.
9 Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia are exhaled from thy garments, And out of the ivory palaces,
10 With which kings’ daughters have gladdened thee for thine honor: The queen stood by on thy right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, And arrayed in diverse colors.
11 Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; Forget also thy people, and thy father’s house.
12 Because the king has desired thy beauty; For he is thy Lord.
13 And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; The rich of the people of the land shall supplicate thy favor.
14 All her glory is that of the daughter of the king of Heshbon, Robed as she is in golden fringed garments,
15 in embroidered clothing: Virgins shall be brought to the king after her: Her fellows shall be brought to thee.
16 They shall be brought with gladness and exultation: They shall be led into the king’s temple.
17 Instead of thy fathers children are born to thee: Thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
18 They shall make mention of thy name from generation to generation: Therefore shall the nations give thanks to thee Forever, even forever and ever.

1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O God! we have heard with our ears, Our fathers have told us, What deeds thou didst in their days, In the days of old.
2 With thine own hand didst thou drive out the nations, And plant our fathers; Thou didst destroy the nations, And cause our fathers to flourish.
3 For not by their own swords did they gain possession of the land, Nor did their own arms give them victory; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance; For thou didst favor them!
4 Thou art my king, O God! O send deliverance to Jacob!
5 Through thee we may cast down our enemies; Through thy name we may trample upon our adversaries!
6 I trust not in my bow, Nor can my sword save me.
7 But it is thou only who savest us from our enemies, And puttest to shame those who hate us!
8 In God will we glory continually; Yea, we will praise thy name for ever! Pause.
9 Yet now thou hast cast us off, and put us to shame; Thou goest not forth with our armies.
10 Thou makest us turn back from the enemy, And they who hate us make our goods their prey.
11 Thou makest us like sheep destined for food, And scatterest us among the nations.
12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, And increasest not thy wealth by their price.
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scorn and a derision to those who are around us.
14 Thou makest us a byword among the nations, And causest the people to shake their heads at us.
15 My ignominy is continually before me, And shame covereth my face,
16 On account of the voice of the scoffer and the reviler, And on account of the enemy and the avenger.
17 All this hath come upon us; Yet have we not forgotten thee, Nor have we been false to thy covenant.
18 Our hearts, have not wandered from thee, Nor have our feet gone out of thy path;
19 Though thou hast crushed us in a land of jackals, And covered us with thick darkness.
20 If we had forgotten the name of our God, Or stretched forth our hands to a strange God,
21 Surely God would search it out; For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 But for thy sake we are killed all the day; We are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake! why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise! cast us not off for ever!
24 Wherefore dost thou hide thy face, And forget our affliction and oppression?
25 Our soul is bowed down to the dust; Our body cleaveth to the earth.
26 Arise, O thou, our strength! And deliver us, for thy mercy's sake!

1 For the leader. Of the Korahites. A maskil. O God, we have heard with our ears, all our ancestors have told us of the work that you wrought in their day, your wonders in days of old,
2 uprooting and crushing the nations, then planting and settling them. For it wasn't their own sword that won them the land,
3 it was not their own arm that brought them the victory. Yours was the hand and the arm, yours was the face that shone on them with favour.
4 It was you, my king and my God, that ordained the victories of Jacob.
5 Through you we can thrust back our foes, and by your name tread down our assailants:
6 for not in my bow do I trust, nor can my sword win me the victory.
7 Our victory comes from you, and confusion to those who hate us.
8 In God we boast all the day long, and your name will we praise forever. Selah
9 Yet you have spurned and disgraced us, in not going forth with our armies,
10 and in making us flee from the foe, so that those who hated us plundered us.
11 You have let us be eaten like sheep, you have scattered us over the world,
12 sold your people for a pittance, and getting no gain from their price.
13 You have made us the butt of our neighbours, the derision and scorn of all round us.
14 O'er the world you have made us a byword, the nations at us shake their heads.
15 My disgrace is forever before me, my face is covered with shame,
16 at the words of blasphemer and scoffer, at the sight of the foe and the vengeful.
17 All this has come upon us, yet we have not forgotten you nor falsely dealt with your covenant.
18 Our heart has not turned back, nor our steps declined from your way,
19 that you thus should have crushed us down, and covered us over with gloom, in the place where the jackals roam.
20 Had we forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a god that was strange,
21 would God not have searched this out? For he knows the heart and its secrets.
22 But in your cause it is we are killed all the day, and counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Rouse yourself, why do you sleep Lord? Awake, cast us not off forever.
24 Why do you hide your face, forgetting our stress and our misery?
25 For we have sunk down to the dust, our bodies cling to the ground.
26 Arise, come to our help: for your love's sake, ransom us.

1 We have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· with our ears, God; our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the days of old.
2 You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you spread them abroad.
3 For they didn’t get the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you were favorable to them.
4 You are my King, God. Enjoin yishu'ah ·deliverance· for Jacob Supplanter!
5 Through you, will we push down our adversaries. Through your name, will we tread them under who rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.
8 In God we have made our boast all day long, we will yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to your name forever. Selah ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
9 But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and don’t go out with our armies.
10 You make us turn back from the adversary. Those who hate us take plunder for themselves.
11 You have made us like sheep for food, and have scattered us among the nations.
12 You sell your people for nothing, and have gained nothing from their sale.
13 You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.
14 You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15 All day long my dishonor is before me, and shame covers my face,
16 At the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses, because of the enemy and the avenger.
17 All this has come on us, yet have we not forgotten you, Neither have we been false to your covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·.
18 Our heart has not turned back, neither have our steps strayed from your path,
19 Though you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread out our hands to a strange deity;
21 won’t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
22 Yes, for your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Wake up! Why do you sleep, Lord? Arise! Don’t reject us forever.
24 Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust. Our body clings to the earth.
26 Rise up to help us. Redeem us for your cheshed ·loving-kindness’· sake.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Unlocked Literal Bible

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of the sons of Korah. A maschil. We have heard with our ears, God, our fathers have told us what work you did in their days, in the days of old.
2 You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted our people; you afflicted the peoples, but you spread our people out in the land.
3 For they did not obtain the land for their possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, because you were favorable to them.
4 God, You are my King; command victory for Jacob.
5 Through you we will push down our adversaries; through your name we will tread them under, those who rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither will my sword save me.
7 But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have put to shame those who hate us.
8 In God we have made our boast all the day long, and we will give thanks to your name forever. Selah
9 But now you have thrown us off and brought us dishonor, and you do not go out with our armies.
10 You make us turn back from the adversary; and those who hate us take spoil for themselves.
11 You have made us like sheep to be slaughtered and have scattered us among the nations.
12 You sell your people for nothing; you have not increased your wealth by doing so.
13 You make us a rebuke to our neighbors, scoffed and mocked by those around us.
14 You make us an insult among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15 All the day long my dishonor is before me, and the shame of my face has covered me
16 because of the voice of him who rebukes and insults, because of the enemy and the avenger.
17 All this has come on us; yet we have not forgotten you or dealt falsely with your covenant.
18 Our heart has not turned back; our steps have not gone from your way.
19 Yet you have severely broken us in the place of jackals and covered us with the shadow of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a strange god,
21 would not God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
22 Indeed, for your sake we are being killed all day long; we are considered to be sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why do you sleep, Lord? Arise, do not throw us off permanently.
24 Why do you hide your face and forget our affliction and our oppression?
25 For we have melted away into the dust; our bodies cling to the earth.
26 Rise up for our help and redeem us for the sake of your covenant faithfulness.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Noah Webster Bible

1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and didst plant them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
3 For they obtained not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favor to them.
4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name we will tread them under that rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they who hate us plunder for themselves.
11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for food; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
12 Thou sellest thy people for naught, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to them that are around us.
14 Thou makest us a by-word among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17 All this is come upon us; yet we have not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
19 Though thou hast severely broke us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shades of death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
21 Will not God search out this? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Yes, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O LORD? arise, cast us not off for ever.
24 Why hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth to the earth.
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

1 To victory, learning to the sons of Korah. God, we heard with our ears; our fathers told to us. The work, which thou wroughtest in the days of them; and in the old days.
2 Thine hand lost heathen men, and thou plantedest them; thou tormentedest peoples, and castedest them out.
3 For the children of Israel wielded the land not by their sword; and the arm of them saved not them. But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the lightening of thy cheer; for thou were pleased in them.
4 Thou art thyself, my king, and my God; that sendest healths to Jacob.
5 By thee we shall winnow our enemies with the horn; and in thy name we shall despise them, that rise against us.
6 For I shall not hope in my bow; and my sword shall not save me.
7 For thou hast saved us from men tormenting us; and thou hast shamed men hating us.
8 We shall be pleased in God all day; and in thy name we shall acknowledge to thee into the world.
9 But now thou hast put us aback, and hast shamed us; and thou, Lord, shalt not go out in our virtues.
10 Thou hast turned us away behind after our enemies; and they, that hated us, ravished diversely to themselves.
11 Thou hast given us as sheep of meats; and among heathen men thou hast scattered us.
12 Thou hast sold thy people without price; and multitude there was not in the exchangings of them.
13 Thou hast set or put us as a shame to our neighbours; mocking and scorn to them that be in our compass.
14 Thou hast set or put us into like-ness to heathen men; and wagging of the head among peoples.
15 All day my shame is against me; and the shame of my face covered me.
16 From the voice of the despiser, and evil speaker; from the face of the enemy, and the pursuer.
17 All these things came on us, and we have not forgotten thee; and we did not wickedly in thy testament.
18 And our heart went not away behind; and thou hast not bowed away our paths from thy way.
19 For thou hast made us low in the place of torment; and the shadow of death covered us.
20 If we forgat the name of our God; and if we held forth our hands to an alien God.
21 Whether God shall not seek these things? for he knoweth the hid things of heart.
22 For why we be slain all day for thee; we be deemed as sheep of slaying.
23 Lord, rise up, why sleepest thou? rise up, and put not us away into the end.
24 Why turnest thou away thy face? thou forgettest our poverty, and our tribulation.
25 For our life is made low in dust; our womb is glued together in the earth.
26 Lord, rise up thou, and help us; and again-buy us for thy name.

Psalms 44:1-26 in Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling (Enhanced)

1 To victory, learning to the sons of Korah. God, we heard with our ears; our fathers told to us. The work, which thou wroughtest in the days of them; and in the old days. (For the choirmaster, (a song) of a teaching by the Korahites. God, we heard with our ears, for our forefathers told us, of the work which thou hast wrought in their days; yea, in the old days.)
2 Thine hand lost heathen men, and thou plantedest them, (or Thy hand destroyed the heathen or Thy power drove out the heathen, and thou plantedest our forefathers there); thou tormentedest (the) peoples, and castedest them out.
3 For the children of Israel wielded the land not by their sword; and the arm of them saved not them. But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the lightening of thy cheer; for thou were pleased in them. (For the children of Israel took the land not by their own swords; and their own power did not save them. But it was thy right hand, and thy power, and the shining of thy face; for thou gavest favour to them.)
4 Thou art thyself, my king, and my God; that sendest healths to Jacob. (Thou art my King, and my God; who sendest help to Jacob.)
5 By thee we shall winnow our enemies with the horn; and in thy name we shall despise them, that rise against us. (By thy power we shall winnow our enemies; and in thy name, we shall defeat those who rise up against us.)
6 For I shall not hope in my bow (or For I shall not trust in my bow); and my sword shall not save me.
7 For thou hast saved us from men tormenting us; and thou hast shamed men hating us.
8 We shall be pleased in God all day; and in thy name we shall acknowledge to thee into the world. (We shall glory in God all day long; and we shall praise thy name forever.)
9 But now thou hast put us aback, and hast shamed us; and thou, Lord, shalt not go out in our virtues. (But now thou hast rejected us, and hast humbled us; and O Lord, thou no longer goeth out with our hosts, or our armies.)
10 Thou hast turned us away behind after our enemies; and they, that hated us, ravished diversely to themselves. (Thou hast made us turn back, or run away, from our enemies; and those, who hate us, took for themselves what was ours.)
11 Thou hast given us as sheep of meats; and among heathen men thou hast scattered us. (Thou hast given us up like sheep for meat, or for food; and thou hast scattered us among the heathen.)
12 Thou hast sold thy people without price; and multitude there was not in the (ex)changings of them. (Thou hast sold thy people for nothing; and there was no profit from their sale.)
13 Thou hast set us (as a) shame to our neighbours; mocking and scorn to them that be in our compass. (Thou hast made us a shame, or a reproach, to our neighbours; a mockery, and scorned by those who be all around us.)
14 Thou hast set us into likeness to heathen men; and stirring of the head/and wagging of (the) head among peoples. (Thou hast made us into a likeness, or a byword, to the heathen; and they shook their heads over us among the nations.)
15 All day my shame is against me; and the shame of my face covered me. (All day long my shame is before me; and the shame on my face covered me.)
16 From the voice of the despiser, and evil speaker; from the face of the enemy, and the pursuer. (From the voice of him who despiseth, and speaketh evil; from before the enemy, and the pursuer.)
17 All these things came on us, and we have not forgotten thee; and we did not wickedly in thy testament. (All these things came upon us, but we did not forget thee; and we have not broken thy covenant.)
18 And our heart went not away behind; and thou hast (not) bowed away our paths from thy way. (And our hearts did not turn away from thee or And our hearts did not turn back from thee; and our steps have not turned away from thy way.)
19 For thou hast made us low in the place of torment; and the shadow of death covered us. (Though thou hast made us low, or hast humbled us, in the place of torment; and hast covered us with the shadow of death.)
20 If we forgat the name of our God; and if we held forth our hands to an alien God. (And if we had forgotten the name of our God; or if we had held forth our hands to a foreign, or another, god;)
21 Whether God shall not seek these things? for he knoweth the hid things of heart. (shall not God seek out these things? for he knoweth the hidden things of the heart.)
22 For why we be slain all day for thee; we be deemed as sheep of slaying. (But we be killed all day long for thee; we be judged, or treated, like sheep for the slaughter.)
23 Lord, rise up, why sleepest thou? rise up, and put not us away into the end, (or rise up, and do not shun us forever).
24 Why turnest thou away thy face? thou forgettest our poverty, and our tribulation. (Why turnest thou away thy face? forgettest thou our poverty, and all our troubles?)
25 For our life is made low in dust; our womb is glued together in the earth. (For our life is brought down low into the dust; our womb is glued together with the earth or and we lie flat on our backs.)
26 Lord, rise up thou, and help us; and again-buy us for thy name. (Lord, rise thou up, and help us; and redeem us for the sake of thy name.)

Psalms 44:1-26 in Young's Literal Translation

1 To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. An Instruction. O God, with our ears we have heard, Our fathers have recounted to us, The work Thou didst work in their days, In the days of old.
2 Thou, with Thy hand, nations hast dispossessed. And Thou dost plant them. Thou afflictest peoples, and sendest them away.
3 For, not by their sword Possessed they the land, And their arm gave not salvation to them, But Thy right hand, and Thine arm, And the light of Thy countenance, Because Thou hadst accepted them.
4 Thou art He, my king, O God, Command the deliverances of Jacob.
5 By Thee our adversaries we do push, By Thy name tread down our withstanders,
6 For, not in my bow do I trust, And my sword doth not save me.
7 For Thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And those hating us Thou hast put to shame.
8 In God we have boasted all the day, And Thy name to the age we thank. Selah.
9 In anger Thou hast cast off and causest us to blush, And goest not forth with our hosts.
10 Thou causest us to turn backward from an adversary, And those hating us, Have spoiled for themselves.
11 Thou makest us food like sheep, And among nations Thou hast scattered us.
12 Thou sellest Thy people — without wealth, And hast not become great by their price.
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a reproach to our surrounders.
14 Thou makest us a simile among nations, A shaking of the head among peoples.
15 All the day my confusion is before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me.
16 Because of the voice of a reproacher and reviler, Because of an enemy and a self-avenger.
17 All this met us, and we did not forget Thee, Nor have we dealt falsely in Thy covenant.
18 We turn not backward our heart, Nor turn aside doth our step from Thy path.
19 But Thou hast smitten us in a place of dragons, And dost cover us over with death-shade.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, And spread our hands to a strange God,
21 Doth not God search out this? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Surely, for Thy sake we have been slain all the day, Reckoned as sheep of the slaughter.
23 Stir up — why dost Thou sleep, O Lord? Awake, cast us not off for ever.
24 Why Thy face hidest Thou? Thou forgettest our afflictions and our oppression,
25 For bowed to the dust hath our soul, Cleaved to the earth hath our belly.
26 Arise, a help to us, And ransom us for thy kindness' sake.
