Psalm 43

Revised Geneva Translation

43 Judge me, O God, and defend my cause against the unmerciful people. Deliver me from the deceitful and wicked man.

²For You are the God of my strength. Why have You put me away? Why do I go so mourning when the enemy oppressed me?

³Send Your light and Your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to Your Holy Mountain, and to Your Tabernacles.

⁴Then I will go to the altar of God, even to the God of my joy and gladness. And upon the harp will I give thanks to You, O God, my God.

⁵Why are You cast down, my soul? And why are You disquieted within me? Wait on God; for I will still give Him thanks, my present help and my God. To him who excels: A Psalm to give instruction, committed to the sons of Korah.
