Psalm 43. Judica me, Deus.

1. Give judgment for me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people; *
   deliver me from the deceitful and the wicked.
2. For you are the God of my strength; why have you put me from you? *
   and why do I go so heavily while the enemy oppresses me?
3. Send out your light and your truth, that they may lead me, *
   and bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling;
4. That I may go to the altar of God, to the God of my joy and gladness; *
   and on the harp I will give thanks to you, O God my God.
5. Why are you so full of heaviness, O my soul? *
   and why are you so disquieted within me?
6. Put your trust in God; *
   for I will yet give thanks to him, who is the help of my countenance, and my God.
