Psalms 44:17
15 All day long my disgrace is before me, and shame has covered my face,
16 at the voice of the scorner and reviler, because of the enemy, bent on revenge.
All this has come upon us, though we have not forgotten You or betrayed Your covenant.
18 Our hearts have not turned back; our steps have not strayed from Your path.
19 But You have crushed us in the lair of jackals; You have covered us with deepest darkness.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
