Psalms 44:24 Context
22Yea for thy sake are wee killed all the day long: wee are counted as sheepe for the slaughter. 23Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast vs not off for euer. 24Wherefore hidest thou thy face? and forgettest our affliction, and our oppression? 25For our soule is bowed downe to the dust; our belly cleaueth vnto the earth. 26Arise for our helpe, and redeeme vs for thy mercies sake.
