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.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For our soul is bowed down to the dust,.... Which may signify great declension in spiritual things, much dejection of mind, and little exercise of grace, Psalms 119:25; or a very low estate in temporals; subjection to their enemies; they setting their feet upon their necks, and obliging them to lick the dust of them: and even it may signify nearness to death itself; see Joshua 10:24;

our belly cleaveth to the earth; as persons that lie prostrate, being conquered and suppliants.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For our soul is bowed down to the dust - That is, We are overborne with calamity, so that we sink to the earth. The expression is one that denotes great affliction.

Our belly cleaveth unto the earth - We are like animals that are prone upon the earth, and that cannot rise. The allusion may be to reptiles that cannot stand erect. The figure is intended to denote great prostration and affliction.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 44:25. Our soul is bowed down — Our life is drawing near to the grave. If thou delay to help us, we shall become extinct.
