Psalms 43

1 Vindicate me, God, and defend my cause against a faithless nation; rescue me from deceitful and unjust people.

2 For you are the God of my stronghold. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go about mourning under the oppression of the enemy?

3 Send out your light and your truth; let them guide me and bring me to your holy mountain and to your dwelling places.

4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my great joy, and praise you with the harp, God, my God.

5 Why are you downcast, my soul, and why are you stirred up within me? Hope in God, for I will yet praise him: he is the salvation of my face and my God.
