1Unto the end, for the sons of Core, to give understanding.
1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: Oh deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2We have heard, O God, with our ears: our fathers have declared to us, The work thou hast wrought in their days, and in the days of old.
2For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou cast me off? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3Thy hand destroyed the Gentiles, and thou plantedst them: thou didst afflict the people and cast them out.
3Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me: Let them bring me unto thy holy hill, And to thy tabernacles.
4For they got not the possession of the land by their own sword: neither did their own arm save them. But thy right hand and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance: because thou wast pleased with them.
4Then will I go unto the altar of God, Unto God my exceeding joy; And upon the harp will I praise thee, O God, my God.
5Thou art thyself my king and my God, who commandest the saving of Jacob.
5Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him, Who isthe help of my countenance, and my God.
6Through thee we will push down our enemies with the horn: and through thy name we will despise them that rise up against us.

8But thou hast saved us from them that afflict us: and hast put them to shame that hate us.

9In God shall we glory all the day long: and in thy name we will give praise for ever.
9(not in this translation)
10But now thou hast cast us off, and put us to shame: and thou , O God, wilt not go out with our armies.
10(not in this translation)
11Thou hast made us turn our back to our enemies: and they that hated us plundered for themselves.
11(not in this translation)
12Thou hast given us up like sheep to be eaten: thou hast scattered us among the nations.
12(not in this translation)
13Thou hast sold thy people for no price: and there was no reckoning in the exchange of them.
13(not in this translation)
14Thou hast made us a reproach to our neighbours, a scoff and derision to them that are round about us.
14(not in this translation)
15Thou hast made us a byword among the Gentiles: a shaking of the head among the people.
15(not in this translation)
16All the day long my shame is before me: and the confusion of my face hath covered me,
16(not in this translation)
17At the voice of him that reproacheth and detracteth me: at the face of the enemy and persecutor.
17(not in this translation)
18All these things have come upon us, yet we have not forgotten thee: and we have not done wickedly in thy covenant.
18(not in this translation)
19And our heart hath not turned back: neither hast thou turned aside our steps from thy way.
19(not in this translation)
20For thou hast humbled us in the place of affliction: and the shadow of death hath covered us.
20(not in this translation)
21If we have forgotten the name of our God, and if we have spread forth our hands to a strange god:
21(not in this translation)
22Shall 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.
22(not in this translation)
23Arise, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, and cast us not off to the end.
23(not in this translation)
24Why turnest thou thy face away? and forgettest our want and our trouble?
24(not in this translation)
