Psalms 43
PSALM 43
1 Defend me, take up my cause against people who have no pity; from the treacherous and cunning man rescue me, God.
2 It is you, God, who are my shelter: why do you abandon me? Why must I walk so mournfully, oppressed by the enemy?
3 Send out your light and your truth, let these be my guide, to lead me to your holy mountain and to the place where you live.
4 Then I shall go to the altar of God, to the God of my joy, I shall rejoice, I shall praise you on the harp, Yahweh, my God.
5 Why so downcast, my soul, why do you sigh within me? Put your hope in God: I shall praise him yet, my saviour, my God.
