Psalm 43

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

2. For You are the God of my strength; why do You cast me off? Why do I go mourning under the oppression of the enemy?

3. Oh, send out Your light and Your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to Your holy mountain and to Your tabernacles.

4. Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; yea, upon the lyre I will praise You, O God, my God.

5. Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why do you moan within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
