| To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. |
sons of Korah | |
| 1 | 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.
|
H · G · S |
| 2 | How thou didst
drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how
thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
|
H · G · S |
| 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.
|
H · G · S |
| 4 | Thou art my King, O
God: command deliverances for Jacob.
|
H · G · S |
| 5 | Through thee will we
push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that
rise up against us.
|
H · G · S |
| 6 | For I will not trust
in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
|
H · G · S |
| 7 | But thou hast saved
us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
|
H · G · S |
| 8 | In God we boast all
the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
|
H · G · S Selah |
| 9 | But thou hast cast
off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
|
H · G · S |
| 10 | Thou makest us to
turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
|
H · G · S |
| 11 | Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat;
and hast scattered us among the heathen.
|
H · G · S |
| 12 | Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost
not increase thy wealth by their price.
|
H · G · S |
| 13 | Thou makest us a
reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are
round about us.
|
H · G · S |
| 14 | Thou makest us a
byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
|
H · G · S byword among the heathen |
| 15 | My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath
covered me,
|
H · G · S |
| 16 | For the voice of him
that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
|
H · G · S |
| 17 | All this is come
upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely
in thy covenant.
|
H · G · S not forgotten thee |
| 18 | Our heart is not
turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
|
H · G · S |
| 19 | Though thou hast
sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow
of death.
|
H · G · S |
| 20 | If we have forgotten
the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
|
H · G · S |
| 21 | Shall not God search
this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
|
H · G · S |
| 22 | Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long;
we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
|
H · G · S killed all the day long R836 |
| 23 | Awake, why sleepest
thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
|
H · G · S |
| 24 | Wherefore hidest
thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our
oppression?
|
H · G · S |
| 25 | For our soul is
bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
|
H · G · S |
| 26 | Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake. | H · G · S |
