Psalms 44:17 BBE

¹⁵  My downfall is ever before me, and I am covered with the shame of my face;

¹⁶  Because of the voice of him who says sharp and bitter words; because of the hater and him who is the instrument of punishment.

¹⁷  All this has come on us, but still we have kept you in our memory; and we have not been false to your word.

¹⁸  Our hearts have not gone back, and our steps have not been turned out of your way;

¹⁹  Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.
