 ¹⁹Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.

 ²¹Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
 ²²Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
 ²³Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
 ²⁴Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
