19 Though us thou brak'st in dragons' place,and cover'dst with death's shade.
20 If we God's name forgot, or stretch'dto a strange god our hands,
21 Shall not God search this out? for heheart's secrets understands.
22 Yea, for thy sake we're kill'd all day,counted as slaughter-sheep.
23 Rise, Lord, cast us not ever off;awake, why dost thou sleep?
24 O wherefore hidest thou thy face?forgett'st our cause distress'd,
25 And our oppression? For our soulis to the dust down press'd:Our belly also on the earthfast cleaving, hold doth take.
