22Truly, because of you we are put to death every day; we are numbered like sheep for destruction.
23Why are you sleeping, O Lord? awake! and come to our help, do not give us up for ever.
24Why is your face covered, and why do you give no thought to our trouble and our cruel fate?
25For our souls are crushed down to the dust: our bodies are stretched out on the earth.
26Up! and come to our help, and give us salvation because of your mercy.
