18 Our hearts had not turned away from you. Our feet had not wandered from your path.

Psalms 44:18 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:18

Our heart is not turned back
To its original hardness, blindness, and bondage, to its former sin and folly, to cherish, gratify, and fulfil its lusts and desires; not from God, from love to him, faith in him, and desires after him; nor from his worship and service; their trials had no such influence upon them as to cause them to apostatize from God, neither in heart, nor in action; neither have our steps declined from thy way;
from the way of his commandments, from the paths of holiness, truth, and faith, being directed and guided therein by the counsel of the Lord, and kept and preserved by his power.

Psalms 44:18 In-Context

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.
18 Our hearts had not turned away from you. Our feet had not wandered from your path.
19 But you crushed us and left us to the wild dogs. You covered us over with deep darkness.
20 We didn't forget our God. We didn't spread out our hands in prayer to a strange god.
