Psa. 44:9‑26• 9But thou hast cast off, and put us to confusion, and dost not go forth with our armies;
10Thou hast made us to turn back from the adversary, and they that hate us spoil for themselves;
11Thou hast given us over like sheep appointed for meat, and hast scattered us among the nations;
12Thou hast sold thy people for nought, and hast not increased thy wealth by their price;
13Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a mockery and a derision for them that are round about us;
14Thou makest us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15All the day my confusion is before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16Because of the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and the avenger.
17All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely against thy covenant:
18Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy path;
19Though thou hast crushed us in the place of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20If we had forgotten the name of our God, and stretched out our hands to a strange *god,
21Would not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22But for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are reckoned as sheep for slaughter.
23Awake, why sleepest thou, Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.
24Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25For our soul is bowed down to the dust; our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26Rise up for our help, and redeem us for thy loving-kindness' sake.

2 Chron. 12:1‑12• 1And it came to pass when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and when he had become strong, that he forsook the law of Jehovah, and all Israel with him.
2And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, because they had transgressed against Jehovah, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem,
3with twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen; and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt: Libyans, Sukkites, and Ethiopians.
4And he took the fortified cities that belonged to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
5And Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and to the princes of Judah that had gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, Thus saith Jehovah: Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.
6And the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, Jehovah is righteous.
7And when Jehovah saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves: I will not destroy them, but I will grant them a little deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
8Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
9And Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king's house; he took away all; and he took away the shields of gold that Solomon had made.
10And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the chief of the couriers who kept the entrance of the king's house.
11And it was so, that as often as the king entered into the house of Jehovah, the couriers came and fetched them, and brought them again into the chamber of the couriers.
12And when he humbled himself, the anger of Jehovah turned away from him, that he would not destroy him altogether; and also in Judah there were good things.
