Bible verse
Wake up, O Lord! Why are You sleeping? Arise! Do not reject us forever.
Psalm 44:23 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 44.
19 But You have crushed us in the lair of jackals; You have covered us with deepest darkness.
20 If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god,
21 would not God have discovered, since He knows the secrets of the heart?
22 Yet for Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.
23 Wake up, O Lord! Why are You sleeping? Arise! Do not reject us forever.
24 Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and oppression?
25 For our soul has sunk to the dust; our bodies cling to the earth.
26 Rise up; be our help! Redeem us on account of Your loving devotion.
