18. All these things have come upon us, yet we have not forgotten thee: and we have not done wickedly in they covenant.
19. And our heart hath not turned back: neither hast thou turned aside our steps from thy way.
20. For thou hast humbled us in the place of affliction: and the shadow of death hath covered us.
21. If we have forgotten the name of our God, and if we have spread forth our hands to a strange god:
22. Shall not God search out these things: for he knoweth the secrets of the heart. Because for thy sake we are killed all the day long: we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23. Arise, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, and cast us not off to the end.
24. Why turnest thou face away? and forgettest our want and our trouble?
25. For our soul is humbled down to the dust: our belly cleaveth to the earth.
