Psalms 44:15-21
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 44
15All day long my dishonor is before me And I am covered with my humiliation, 16Because of the voice of one who taunts and reviles, Because of the presence of the enemy and the avenger. 17All this has come upon us, but we have not forgotten You, And we have not dealt falsely with Your covenant. 18Our heart has not turned back, And our steps have not deviated from Your way, 19Yet You have crushed us in a place of jackals And covered us with deep darkness. 20If we had forgotten the name of our God Or extended our hands to a strange god, 21Would God not find this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
16because of the taunts of the scorner and reviler, because of the enemy and avenger.
17All this has happened to us, but we have not forgotten you or betrayed your covenant.
18Our hearts have not turned back; our steps have not strayed from your path.
19But you have crushed us in a haunt of jackals and have covered us with deepest darkness.
20If we had forgotten the name of our God and spread out our hands to a foreign god,
21wouldn’t God have found this out, since he knows the secrets of the heart?
New Living Translation
Chapter 44
15We can’t escape the constant humiliation; shame is written across our faces. 16All we hear are the taunts of our mockers. All we see are our vengeful enemies.
17All this has happened though we have not forgotten you. We have not violated your covenant.
18Our hearts have not deserted you. We have not strayed from your path.
19Yet you have crushed us in the jackal’s desert home. You have covered us with darkness and death.
20If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread our hands in prayer to foreign gods,
21God would surely have known it, for he knows the secrets of every heart.
English Standard Version
Chapter 44
15All day long my disgrace is before me, and shame has covered my face 16at the sound of the taunter and reviler, at the sight of the enemy and the avenger. 17 All this has come upon us, though we have not forgotten you, and we have not been false to your covenant. 18Our heart has not turned back, nor have our steps departed from your way; 19yet you have broken us in the place of jackals and covered us with the shadow of death. 20If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god, 21 would not God discover this? For he knows the secrets of the heart.New International Version
