To
the
Overseer.
--
By
sons
of
Korah.
An
Instruction.
O
God,
with
our
ears
we have heard, Our fathers have recounted
to
us, The
work Thou didst work
in their days, In the days
of old.
We have heard with
our
ears
, O
God,
our fathers have told
us, what
work thou didst in their days, in the times
of old.
Thou ,
`
with '
Thy hand, nations
hast
dispossessed.
And Thou
dost
plant
them .
Thou afflictest
peoples
, and sendest
them away
.
How
thou didst
drive
out
the
heathen
with thy hand, and plantedst
them ;
how
thou didst
afflict
the
people
, and cast
them out
.
For ,
not by their sword Possessed
they
the
land
, And
their arm gave
not
salvation
to
them ,
But Thy right hand, and Thine arm, And the light of Thy countenance, Because Thou hadst accepted
them.
For they
got
not the
land
in
possession
by their own
sword, neither
did
their own
arm save
them :
but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a
favour
unto
them.
Thou `
art '
He,
my king, O God ,
Command the
deliverances of
Jacob.
Thou art my King, O God :
command deliverances for
Jacob.
By
Thee our
adversaries
we do
push ,
By
Thy name tread down
our
withstanders,
Through
thee will
we push down
our
enemies:
through
thy name will
we
tread them
under
that
rise
up
against
us.
For ,
not in my bow do
I
trust
, And
my sword doth
not
save me.
For I
will
not trust
in my bow, neither
shall
my sword save me.
For
Thou hast saved us from our adversaries
, And those
hating
us
Thou
hast put to shame.
But
thou hast saved us from our enemies
, and hast put them
to shame that
hated
us
.
In God we have
boasted
all the day, And Thy name to
the
age
we
thank
. Selah.
In God we boast
all the day long
, and praise
thy name for
ever
. Selah.
In
anger
Thou hast cast off and causest
us to blush,
And goest not forth with our hosts
.
But
thou hast cast off ,
and put
us to shame;
and goest not forth with our armies
.
Thou causest
us to turn backward
from an
adversary,
And those
hating
us ,
Have
spoiled
for themselves.
Thou makest
us to turn back
from the
enemy:
and they
which
hate
us spoil
for themselves.
Thou makest
us food
like sheep ,
And among
nations
Thou
hast scattered us.
Thou hast
given
us like sheep appointed
for
meat;
and hast scattered us among
the
heathen
.
Thou sellest Thy people --
without
wealth
, And hast
not become
great
by their price.
Thou sellest thy people for
nought
, and dost
not increase
thy
wealth
by their price.
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a reproach
to our
surrounders
.
Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision
to them
that
are
round
about
us
.
Thou makest us a simile
among nations
, A shaking of the head among peoples
.
Thou makest us a byword
among the
heathen
, a shaking of the head among the
people
.
All
the
day
my confusion `
is '
before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me .
My confusion is continually
before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me ,
Because
of
the voice of a
reproacher
and reviler,
Because
of an
enemy and a
self-
avenger.
For
the voice of him
that
reproacheth
and blasphemeth;
by
reason
of the
enemy and avenger.
All this met
us ,
and
we did
not forget
Thee, Nor
have we dealt falsely in Thy covenant.
All this is
come
upon
us ;
yet
have
we not forgotten
thee, neither
have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
We
turn
not
backward
our heart, Nor
turn
aside
doth
our step
from Thy path.
Our heart is
not
turned
back
, neither
have
our steps
declined
from thy way;
But
Thou hast smitten
us in a
place of dragons, And dost
cover
us over
with death -shade
.
Though
thou hast sore
broken
us in the
place of dragons, and covered
us with the
shadow
of
death.
If we have forgotten the name of our God, And
spread
our hands to a strange God ,
If we have forgotten the name of our God, or
stretched
out
our hands to a strange god ;
Doth
not God search out
this? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
Shall
not God search this out
? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
Surely
, for Thy sake we have
been
slain
all the day ,
Reckoned
as sheep of
the slaughter.
Yea
, for thy sake are
we killed
all the day long;
we
are
counted
as sheep for
the slaughter.
Stir
up
--
why dost
Thou sleep
, O Lord? Awake
, cast us not off for ever.
Awake,
why sleepest
thou, O Lord? arise
, cast us not off for ever.
Why
Thy
face
hidest Thou ?
Thou
forgettest our afflictions
and our oppression ,
Wherefore
hidest thou thy
face,
and
forgettest our affliction
and our oppression ?
For bowed to the dust hath
our soul,
Cleaved
to
the earth hath
our
belly
.
For our
soul
is
bowed down
to the dust :
our belly
cleaveth
unto
the earth.
Arise ,
a
help to
us
, And ransom
us for thy kindness
' sake.
Arise for
our
help, and redeem
us for thy mercies
' sake.
