Psalm 44:17-19

Good News Translation

¹⁷ All this has happened to us,
    even though we have not forgotten you
    or broken the covenant you made with us.
¹⁸ We have not been disloyal to you;
    we have not disobeyed your commands.
¹⁹ Yet you left us helpless among wild animals;
    you abandoned us in deepest darkness.
