Psalms 43
43
1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation:
O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou cast me off?
Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3O send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me:
Let them bring me unto thy holy hill,
And to thy tabernacles.
4Then will I go unto the altar of God,
Unto God my exceeding joy:
And upon the harp will I praise thee, O God, my God.
5Why art thou cast down, O my soul?
And why art thou disquieted within me?
Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him,
Who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

Psalms 43
43
1Defend me, God.
Argue my case against those people who don’t know you.
Protect me from those evil liars.
2God, you are my place of safety.
Why have you turned me away?
Why must I suffer this sadness
that my enemies have brought me?
3Send your light and your truth to guide me,
to lead me to your holy mountain, to your home.
4I want to go to God’s altar,
to the God who makes me so very happy.
God, my God, I want to play my harp
and sing praises to you!
5Why am I so sad?
Why am I so upset?
I tell myself, “Wait for God’s help!
You will again have a chance to praise him,
your God, the one who will save you.”
