18 Our heart has not turned back,
aNor have our steps departed from Your way;
19 But You have severely broken us in
athe place of jackals,
And covered us
bwith the shadow of death.
20 If we had forgotten the name of our God,
Or
astretched out our hands to a foreign god,
21 aWould not God search this out?
For He knows the secrets of the heart.
22 aYet for Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 aAwake! Why do You sleep, O Lord?
Arise! Do not cast
us off forever.
