Yet sometimes God seems to forsake even His Anointed, as on

the Cross.

Änóinted: And art displeased at him.

38 Thou hast broken the covenant of thy servant: And cast his crown to the ground –.

40 All they that go by spoil him: And he is become a reproach to his neighbours.

41 Thou hast set up the right-hand of his enemies: And made all his adversaries to rejoice -.

42 Thou hast taken away the edge of his sword: And givest him not victory in the battle.

But let us pray and faint not.
