0 1 The Church, in memory of former fauours, 7 complaineth of their present euils. 17 Professing her integritie, 24 She feruently prayeth for succour.

¶ To the chiefe Musician for the sonnes of Korah.

XLIV ¶ Wee haue heard with our eares, O God, our fathers haue told vs, what worke thou didst in their dayes, in the times of old. 2 How thou didst driue out the heathen with thy hand, & plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out. 3 For they got not the land in possession by their owne sword, neither did their owne arme saue them: but thy right hand, and thine arme, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a fauour vnto them. 4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliuerances for Iacob. 5 Through thee will wee push downe our enemies: through thy Name will wee tread them vnder that rise vp against vs. 6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword saue me. 7 But thou hast saued vs from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated vs. 8 In God we boast all the day long: and praise thy Name for euer. Selah. 9 But thou hast cast off and put vs to shame; and goest not forth with our armies. 10 Thou makest vs to turne backe from the enemie: and they which hate vs, spoile for themselues. 11 [fn]Thou hast giuen vs like sheepe appointed for meate: and hast scattered vs among the heathen. 12 [fn]Thou sellest thy people for nought, and doest not increase thy wealth by their price. 13 [fn]Thou makest vs a reproch to our neighbours, a scorne and a derision to them that are round about vs. 14 [fn]Thou makest vs 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 couered me. 16 For the voice of him that reproacheth, and blasphemeth: by reason of the enemie and auenger. 17 All this is come vpon vs; yet haue wee not forgotten thee, neither haue we dealt falsly in thy couenant. 18 [fn]Our heart is not turned backe: neither haue our steps declined from thy way, 19 Though thou hast sore broken vs in the place of dragons, and couered vs with the shadow of death. 20 If wee haue 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 [fn]Yea for thy sake are wee killed all the day long: wee are counted as sheepe for the slaughter. 23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O LORD? arise, cast vs not off for euer. 24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face? and forgettest our affliction, and our oppression? 25 For our soule is bowed downe to the dust; our belly cleaueth vnto the earth. 26 [fn]Arise for our helpe, and redeeme vs for thy mercies sake.
