We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days. Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob. Through thee will we push down our enemies. I will not trust in my bow. But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame. Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter. Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
