17. All this is come upon us; yet we have 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 knows the secrets of the heart.
