Psalm 44:17-19

International Standard Version

¹⁷ All this came upon us,
    yet we did not forsake you,
        and we have not dealt falsely with your covenant;
¹⁸ Our hearts have not turned away;
    our steps have not swerved from your path.
¹⁹ Nevertheless, you crushed us in the lair of jackals,
    and covered us in deep darkness.^[a]
