21 Will not God search out this? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22 Yes, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
24 Why hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth to the earth.
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
