Psalms 44:23-24

Context

44:23 Rouse yourself! Why do you sleep, O Lord?

Wake up! 1  Do not reject us forever!

44:24 Why do you look the other way, 2 

and ignore 3  the way we are oppressed and mistreated? 4 

1 sn Wake up! See Ps 35:23.

2 tn Heb “Why do you hide your face?” The idiom “hide the face” can mean “ignore” (see Pss 10:11; 13:1; 51:9) or carry the stronger idea of “reject” (see Pss 30:7; 88:14).

3 tn Or “forget.”

4 tn Heb “our oppression and our affliction.”
