Psalms 43

1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: Oh deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

1Be my judge, O God, supporting my cause against a nation without religion; O keep me from the false and evil man.

1Judge me, OGod, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; deliver me from the deceitful and unrighteous man.

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?

2You are the God of my strength; why have you put me from you? why do I go in sorrow because of the attacks of my haters?

2 For thou art theGod of my strength: why hast thou cast me off? why go I about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me: Let them bring me unto thy holy hill, And to thy tabernacles.

3O send out your light and your true word; let them be my guide: let them take me to your holy hill, and to your tents.

3 Send out thy light and thy truth: they shall lead me, they shall bring me to thy holy mount, and unto thy habitations.

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.

4Then I will go up to the altar of God, to the God of my joy; I will be glad and give praise to you on an instrument of music, O God, my God.

4 Then will I go unto the altar ofGod, unto theGod of the gladness of my joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, OGod, myGod.

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 isthe help of my countenance, and my God.

5Why are you crushed down, O my soul? and why are you troubled in me? put your hope in God, for I will again give him praise who is my help and my God.

5 Why art thou cast down, my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope inGod; for I shall yet praise him, [who is] the health of my countenance, and myGod.
