14 So when the people set out from their tents to cross the Jordan, with the priests carrying (A)the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and when those who were carrying the ark came up to the Jordan and the feet of the priests carrying the ark [a]stepped down into the edge of the water (for the (B)Jordan overflows all its banks all the days of harvest), 16 then (C)the waters which were [b]flowing down from above stood and rose up in (D)one heap, a great distance away at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those which were [c]flowing down toward the sea of the (E)Arabah, the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. So the people crossed opposite Jericho. 17 And the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm (F)on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel crossed on dry ground, until all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan.

14 So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant(A) went ahead(B) of them. 15 Now the Jordan(C) is at flood stage(D) all during harvest.(E) Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, 16 the water from upstream stopped flowing.(F) It piled up in a heap(G) a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan,(H) while the water flowing down(I) to the Sea of the Arabah(J) (that is, the Dead Sea(K)) was completely cut off.(L) So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.(M) 17 The priests(N) who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground,(O) while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.(P)

14 And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;

15 And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,)

16 That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.

17 And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.

You with Your own hand (A)drove out the nations;
Then You (B)planted them;
You (C)afflicted the peoples,
Then You (D)let them go free.
For by their own sword they (E)did not possess the land,
And their own arm did not save them,
But Your right hand and Your (F)arm and the (G)light of Your presence,
For You (H)favored them.

You are (I)my King, God;
(J)Command [a]victories for Jacob.
Through You we will (K)push back our adversaries;
Through Your name we will (L)trample down those who rise up against us.
For I will (M)not trust in my bow,
Nor will my sword save me.
But You (N)have saved us from our adversaries,
And You have (O)put to shame those who hate us.
In God we have (P)boasted all day long,
And we will (Q)give thanks to Your name forever. Selah

Yet You (R)have rejected us and brought us to (S)dishonor,
And (T)do not go out with our armies.
10 You cause us to (U)turn back from the enemy;
And those who hate us (V)have taken spoils for themselves.
11 You turn us over [b]to be eaten like (W)sheep,
And have (X)scattered us among the nations.
12 You (Y)sell Your people [c]cheaply,
And have not [d]profited by their sale.
13 You make us an object of (Z)reproach to our neighbors,
Of scoffing and (AA)ridicule to those around us.
14 You make us (AB)a proverb among the nations,
A [e](AC)laughingstock among the peoples.
15 All day long my dishonor is before me
And [f]I am covered with my (AD)humiliation,
16 Because of the voice of one who (AE)taunts and reviles,
Because of the presence of the (AF)enemy and the avenger.

17 All this has come upon us, but we have (AG)not forgotten You,
And we have not (AH)dealt falsely with Your covenant.
18 Our heart has not (AI)turned back,
And our steps (AJ)have not deviated from Your way,
19 Yet You have (AK)crushed us in a place of (AL)jackals
And covered us with [g](AM)deep darkness.

20 If we had (AN)forgotten the name of our God
Or extended our [h]hands to (AO)a strange god,
21 Would God not (AP)find this out?
For He knows the secrets of the heart.
22 But (AQ)for Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are regarded as (AR)sheep to be slaughtered.
23 (AS)Wake Yourself up, why (AT)do You sleep, Lord?
Awake, (AU)do not reject us forever.
24 Why do You (AV)hide Your face
And (AW)forget our affliction and oppression?
25 For our (AX)souls have sunk down into the dust;
Our bodies cling to the earth.
26 (AY)Rise up, be our help,
And (AZ)redeem us because of Your mercy.

With your hand you drove out(A) the nations
    and planted(B) our ancestors;
you crushed(C) the peoples
    and made our ancestors flourish.(D)
It was not by their sword(E) that they won the land,
    nor did their arm bring them victory;
it was your right hand,(F) your arm,(G)
    and the light(H) of your face, for you loved(I) them.

You are my King(J) and my God,(K)
    who decrees[a] victories(L) for Jacob.
Through you we push back(M) our enemies;
    through your name we trample(N) our foes.
I put no trust in my bow,(O)
    my sword does not bring me victory;
but you give us victory(P) over our enemies,
    you put our adversaries to shame.(Q)
In God we make our boast(R) all day long,(S)
    and we will praise your name forever.[b](T)

But now you have rejected(U) and humbled us;(V)
    you no longer go out with our armies.(W)
10 You made us retreat(X) before the enemy,
    and our adversaries have plundered(Y) us.
11 You gave us up to be devoured like sheep(Z)
    and have scattered us among the nations.(AA)
12 You sold your people for a pittance,(AB)
    gaining nothing from their sale.

13 You have made us a reproach(AC) to our neighbors,(AD)
    the scorn(AE) and derision(AF) of those around us.
14 You have made us a byword(AG) among the nations;
    the peoples shake their heads(AH) at us.
15 I live in disgrace(AI) all day long,
    and my face is covered with shame(AJ)
16 at the taunts(AK) of those who reproach and revile(AL) me,
    because of the enemy, who is bent on revenge.(AM)

17 All this came upon us,
    though we had not forgotten(AN) you;
    we had not been false to your covenant.
18 Our hearts had not turned(AO) back;
    our feet had not strayed from your path.
19 But you crushed(AP) us and made us a haunt for jackals;(AQ)
    you covered us over with deep darkness.(AR)

20 If we had forgotten(AS) the name of our God
    or spread out our hands to a foreign god,(AT)
21 would not God have discovered it,
    since he knows the secrets of the heart?(AU)
22 Yet for your sake we face death all day long;
    we are considered as sheep(AV) to be slaughtered.(AW)

23 Awake,(AX) Lord! Why do you sleep?(AY)
    Rouse yourself!(AZ) Do not reject us forever.(BA)
24 Why do you hide your face(BB)
    and forget(BC) our misery and oppression?(BD)

25 We are brought down to the dust;(BE)
    our bodies cling to the ground.

    rescue(BG) us because of your unfailing love.(BH)

  2. Psalm 44:8 The Hebrew has Selah (a word of uncertain meaning) here.

How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.

Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.

For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.

In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.

10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.

11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.

12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.

13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.

14 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.

15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,

16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.

17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.

18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;

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

20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;

21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.

24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?

25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
