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 something that our neighbors laugh at. Those who live around us make fun of us and tease us.

14 The nations make jokes about us. They shake their heads at us.

15 All day long I am reminded of my shame. My face is covered with it

16 because of those who laugh at me and attack me with their words. They want to get even with me.

17 All of this happened to us, even though we had not forgotten you. We had been true to the covenant you made with us.
