Psalm 43

¹Give judgment for me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people; *deliver me from the deceitful and the wicked.

²For you are the God of my strength; why have you put me from you? *and why do I go so heavily while the enemy oppresses me?

³Send out your light and your truth, that they may lead me, *and bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling;

⁴That I may go to the altar of God, to the God of my joy and gladness; *and on the harp I will give thanks to you, O God my God.

⁵Why are you so full of heaviness, O my soul? *and why are you so disquieted within me?

⁶Put your trust in God; *for I will yet give thanks to him, who is the help of my countenance, and my God.
