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.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015115">2</a>. How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015116">3</a>. 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.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015117">4</a>. Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015118">5</a>. Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015119">6</a>. For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015120">7</a>. But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015121">8</a>. In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever.  Selah.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015122">9</a>. But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015123">10</a>. Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015124">11</a>. Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015125">12</a>. Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015126">13</a>. Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015127">14</a>. Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015128">15</a>. My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015129">16</a>. For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015130">17</a>. All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015131">18</a>. Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015132">19</a>. Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015133">20</a>. If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015134">21</a>. Shall not God search this out?  for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015135">22</a>. Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015136">23</a>. Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord?  arise, cast us not off for ever.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015137">24</a>. Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015138">25</a>. For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1015139">26</a>. Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.</li>
