Psalms 44:5-16 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

5. With your help we pushed back our enemies.In your name we walked on those who came against us.

6. I don’t trust my bow to help me.My sword can’t save me.

7. You saved us from Egypt.You made our enemies ashamed.

8. We will praise God every day.We will praise your name forever. Selah

9. But you have rejected us and shamed us.You don’t march with our armies anymore.

10. You let our enemies push us back.Our enemies have taken our wealth.

11. You gave us away like sheep to be eaten.You scattered us among the nations.

12. You sold your people for nothing.You made no profit on the sale.

13. You made us a joke to our neighbors.The community laughs and makes fun of us.

14. You made us a joke to the other nations.People shake their heads.

15. I am always in disgrace.I am covered with shame.

16. My enemy is getting evenwith insults and curses.
