Psalm 43

1.Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly43-1 nation: O deliver me from the deceitful43-2 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 exceeding43-3 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.
