Book Second
Chap. 43.
1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause with an ungodly nation; from a man of deceit and iniquity do thou deliver me.
2 For thou [art] the God of my refuge: why hast thou cast me off? why do I walk mourning under the oppression of the enemy?
3 Send thou thy light and thy truth: they shall lead me, they shall bring me unto the mountain of thy holiness and unto thy tabernacles.
4 And I will go unto the altar of God, unto God the gladness of my joy, and I will give thanks unto thee with the harp, Ο God, my God.
5 Why art thou cast down, Ο my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? Wait thou for God, for I shall yet praise him, the help of my countenance and my God.
