Judge
me,
O
God,
and
plead
my
cause
against
an
ungodly
nation:
O
deliver
me
from
the
deceitful
and
unjust
man.
2
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?
3
O
send
out
thy
light
and
thy
truth:
let
them
lead
me;
let
them
bring
me
unto
thy
holy
hill,
and
to
thy
tabernacles.
4
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.
5
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.
