The Psalms

Psalm 43

 ^43:1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation:

 Oh deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

 ^43:2For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou cast me off?

 Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

 ^43:3Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me:

 Let them bring me unto thy holy hill,

 And to thy tabernacles.

 ^43:4Then will I go unto the altar of God,

 Unto God my exceeding joy;

 And upon the harp will I praise thee, O God, my God.

 ^43:5Why art thou cast down, O my soul?

 And why art thou disquieted within me?

 Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him,

 Who is the help of my countenance, and my God.
