This psalm is a lament written by the Sons of Korah. It first of all recalls the good old days when God gave victory upon victory to his people. It is stressed that these victories were exclusively possible thanks to the arm of the Lord and not by their own swords. However now God's people feel abandoned. The authors cry to God to wake up and stop rejecting them. For they feel forgotten. God's people feel they are enduring undeserved suffering and disgrace and cry to God to rise up and help them!
