Joshua 3:14-17

New International Version

¹⁴So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant^(A) went ahead^(B) of them. ¹⁵Now 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, ¹⁶the 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) ¹⁷The 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)

Psalm 44:2-26

New International Version

²With your hand you drove out^(A) the nations
    and planted^(B) our ancestors;
you crushed^(C) the peoples
    and made our ancestors flourish.^(D)
³It 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.

⁴You are my King^(J) and my God,^(K)
    who decrees^[a] victories^(L) for Jacob.
⁵Through you we push back^(M) our enemies;
    through your name we trample^(N) our foes.
⁶I put no trust in my bow,^(O)
    my sword does not bring me victory;
⁷but you give us victory^(P) over our enemies,
    you put our adversaries to shame.^(Q)
⁸In God we make our boast^(R) all day long,^(S)
    and we will praise your name forever.^[b]^(T)

⁹But now you have rejected^(U) and humbled us;^(V)
    you no longer go out with our armies.^(W)
¹⁰You made us retreat^(X) before the enemy,
    and our adversaries have plundered^(Y) us.
¹¹You gave us up to be devoured like sheep^(Z)
    and have scattered us among the nations.^(AA)
¹²You sold your people for a pittance,^(AB)
    gaining nothing from their sale.

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

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

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

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

²⁵We are brought down to the dust;^(BE)
our bodies cling to the ground.
²⁶Rise up^(BF) and help us;
rescue^(BG) us because of your unfailing love.^(BH)
