18Our heart is not turned backe: neither our steps gone out of thy paths,
19Albeit thou hast smitten vs downe into the place of dragons, and couered vs with the shadow of death.
20If wee haue forgotten the Name of our God, and holden vp our hands to a strange god,
21Shall not God searche this out? for hee knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22Surely for thy sake are we slaine continually, and are counted as sheepe for the slaughter.
23Vp, why sleepest thou, O Lord? awake, be not farre off for euer.
24Wherefore hidest thou thy face? and forgettest our miserie and our affliction?
25For our soule is beaten downe vnto the dust: our belly cleaueth vnto the ground.
26Rise vp for our succour, and redeeme vs for thy mercies sake.
Psalms 44
