Psalms 44:22

²⁰ If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god,

²¹ would not God have discovered, since He knows the secrets of the heart?

Yet for Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.

²³ Wake up, O Lord! Why are You sleeping? Arise! Do not reject us forever.

²⁴ Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and oppression?

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
