Contextual Overview

¹⁷ All these things have happened to us, but we have not forgotten you or failed to keep our agreement with you. ¹⁸ Our hearts haven't turned away from you, and we haven't stopped following you. ¹⁹ But you crushed us in this place where wild dogs live, and you covered us with deep darkness. ²⁰ If we had forgotten our God or lifted our hands in prayer to foreign gods, ²¹ God would have known, because he knows what is in our hearts. ²² But for you we are in danger of death all the time. People think we are worth no more than sheep to be killed. ²³ Wake up, Lord! Why are you sleeping? Get up! Don't reject us forever. ²⁴ Why do you hide from us? Have you forgotten our pain and troubles? ²⁵ We have been pushed down into the dirt; we are flat on the ground. ²⁶ Get up and help us. Because of your love, save us.

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.
