Daily Reading

Psalm 44:11-18 (King James Version)

 ¹¹Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
 ¹²Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
 ¹³Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
 ¹⁴Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
 ¹⁵My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
 ¹⁶For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
 ¹⁷All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
 ¹⁸Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
