Psalm 44:20-22

    [20] If we had forgotten the name of our God

        or spread out our hands to a foreign god, 

    [21] would not God discover this?

        For he knows the secrets of the heart. 

    [22] Yet for your sake we are killed all the day long;

        we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.
