23. For you we are slain all the day long,considered only as sheep to be slaughtered.
24. Awake! Why do you sleep, O Lord?Rise up! Do not reject us forever!
25. Why do you hide your face;why forget our pain and misery?
26. For our soul has been humiliated in the dust;our belly is pressed to the earth.
27. Rise up, help us!Redeem us in your mercy.
