20. (21) If we have forgotten the Shem of Eloheinu, or stretched out our palms [in worship] to an el zar (foreign g-d);
21. (22) Shall not Elohim search this out? For He knoweth the secrets of the lev.
22. (23) Yes, for Thy sake are we killed kol hayom; we are counted as tzon (sheep) for the tivchah (slaughter).
23. (24) Awake. Why sleepest Thou, Adonoi? Arise, cast us not off lanetzach (forever).
24. (25) Why hidest Thou Thy face, and forgettest our oni (misery, affliction) and our oppression?
25. (26) For our nefesh is bowed down to the aphar (dust); our beten (belly, body) has deveykus with the dirt.
26. (27) Arise for our help, and redeem us for the sake of Thy chesed.
