Contextual Overview

17 [And though] all this be come vpon vs: [yet] we do not forget thee, nor shewe our selues to be false in thy couenaunt. 18 Our heart is not turned backe, neither our steppes be declined out of thy pathes: 19 no not when thou hast smitten vs in the place of dragons, and couered vs with the shadowe of death. 20 If we had forgotten the name of our Lorde, and holden vp our handes to any straunge god: 21 woulde not God searche it out? for he knoweth the very secretes of the heart. 22 For thy sake also are we kylled all the day long: and are counted as sheepe appoynted to be slayne. 23 Stirre vp O Lorde, why slepest thou? awake & be not absent from vs for euer: 24 wherfore hydest thou thy face, and forgettest our miserie and tribulation? 25 For our soule is brought lowe vnto the dust: our belly cleaueth vnto ye grounde. 26 Aryse vp thou our ayde, and redeeme vs: for thy louyng kindnesse sake.

Genesis 44:34
For howe can I go vp to my father, if the ladde be not with me? vnlesse I woulde see the wretchednesse that shall come on my father.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Wherefore hidest thou thy face?.... See Psalms 10:1;

[and] forgettest our affliction and our oppression. Not that the Lord does really forget either the persons of his people, which he cannot, since they are engraven on the palms of his hands, and a book of remembrance is written for them: nor the afflictions of his people; he knows their souls in adversity; he chooses them in the furnace of affliction; he makes all afflictions work together for good, and delivers out of them. But because deliverance is not immediately wrought, and they sometimes continue long under their afflictions and oppressions, they seem to be forgotten by him, as during the ten persecutions and the long reign of antichrist.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Wherefore hidest thou thy face? - See the notes at Psalms 13:1. Why dost thou turn away from us, and refuse to aid us, and leave us to these unpitied sufferings?

And forgettest our affliction and our oppression - Our trials, and the wrongs that are committed against us. These are earnest appeals. They are the pleadings of the oppressed and the wronged. The language is such as man would use in addressing his fellow-men; and, when applied to God, it must be understood as such language. As used in the Psalms, it denotes earnestness, but not irreverence; it is solemn petition, not dictation; it is affectionate pleading, not complaint. It indicates depth of suffering and distress, and is the strongest language which could be employed to denote entire helplessness and dependence. At the same time, it is language which implies that the cause for which they suffered was the cause of God, and that they might properly call on him to interfere in behalf of his own friends.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 44:24. Wherefore hidest thou thy face — Show us the cause why thou withdrawest from us the testimony of thy approbation.
