Will the Lord cast off forever? and will he be favorable no more?
[To the Chief Musician upon gittith. A Psalm for the Sons of Korah.] LORD, you have been favorable unto your land: you have brought back the captivity of Jacob.
How long, LORD? will you hide yourself forever? shall your anger burn like fire?
Will you be angry with us forever? will you draw out your anger to all generations?
But you have cast off and abhorred, you have been angry with your anointed.
Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
How long, LORD? will you be angry forever? shall your jealousy burn like fire?
[A maschil of Asaph.] O God, why have you cast us off forever? why does your anger smoke against the sheep of your pasture?
But you have cast off, and put us to shame; and go not forth with our armies.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
