Psalm 43

GIVE sentence with me, O God, and defend my cause against the ungodly people; O deliver me from the deceitful and wicked man. For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou put me from thee? and why go I so heavily, while the enemy oppresseth me? O send out thy light and thy truth, that they may lead me, and bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy dwelling; And that I may go unto the altar of God, even unto the God of my joy and gladness; and upon the harp will I give thanks unto thee, O God, my God. Why art thou so heavy, O my soul? and why art thou so disquieted within me? O put thy trust in God; for I will yet give him thanks, which is the help of my countenance, and my God.

Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation:
  O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? 
 why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; 
 let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: 
  yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? 
  hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, 
  and my God.

[Authorized Version]
