< Psalms 43 >

1 Vindicate me O God - and conduct! case my from a nation not faithful from a man of deceit and injustice you will deliver me.
Right me, defend my cause against a pitiless people. From the crafty and crooked, O God, deliver me.
2 For you - [are] [the] God of refuge my why? have you rejected me why? mourning do I go about in [the] oppression of an enemy.
For you are God my protector: why have you cast me off? Why must I walk so sadly, so hard pressed by the foe?
3 Send light your and truth your they may they lead me may they bring me to [the] mountain of holiness your and to dwelling place your.
Send forth your light and your truth, let them be my guides: to your holy hill let them bring me, to the place where you live.
4 And I will go - to [the] altar of God to [the] God of [the] joy of rejoicing my and I will give thanks to you with a harp O God God my.
Then will I go to God’s altar, to God my rejoicing; and with joy on the lyre I will praise you, O God, my God.
5 Why? are you bowed down - O soul my and why? are you in turmoil on me wait for God for again I will give thanks to him [the] salvation of face my and God my.
Why am I downcast? Why this moaning within me? Hope in God; for yet will I praise him, my help, my God.
