Psalm 43
A Prayer for
Vindication and Deliverance |
1 |
Judge me, O God, and plead my cause
|
against an ungodly nation: |
O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust
man. |
|
|
2 |
For thou art the God of my
strength:
|
why dost thou cast me off? |
Why go I mourning |
because of the oppression of the enemy?
|
|
|
3 |
O send out thy light and thy truth:
|
let them lead me; |
let them bring me unto thy holy hill, |
and to thy
tabernacles. |
|
|
4 |
Then will I go unto the altar of God,
|
unto God my exceeding joy: |
yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, |
O God my God.
|
|
|
5 |
Why art thou cast down, O my soul?
|
And why art thou disquieted within me? |
Hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, |
who is the health of my countenance, and my
God. |
