Psalms 44:15 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:15

My confusion [is] continually before me
Meaning that which is the occasion of it; and the shame of my face hath covered me;
not by reason of sin, which is often the cause of confusion and shame in God's people; see ( Jeremiah 3:25 ) ( Daniel 9:8 ) ; but on account of what follows.

Psalms 44:15 In-Context

13 You have made us a taunt to our neighbors, a derision and a scorn to those around us.
14 You have made us a byword among the nations, a shaking of [the] head among [the] peoples.
15 {All day long} my disgrace [is] before me, and the shame of my face covers me,
16 because of [the] voice of [the] taunter and [the] reviler, because of [the] enemy and [the] avenger.
17 All this has befallen us, though we have not forgotten you, and we have not been false to your covenant.
