Psalm 44:23-26
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 For you we are slain all the day long,
considered only as sheep to be slaughtered.(A)
IV
24 Awake! Why do you sleep, O Lord?
Rise up! Do not reject us forever!(B)
25 Why do you hide your face;(C)
why forget our pain and misery?
26 For our soul has been humiliated in the dust;(D)
our belly is pressed to the earth.
