1. Judge me, O God, and plead my cause

1. against an ungodly nation:

1. O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

2. For thou art the God of my strength:

2. why dost thou cast me off?

2. Why go I mourning

2. because of the oppression of the enemy?

3. O send out thy light and thy truth:

3. let them lead me;

3. let them bring me unto thy holy hill,

3. and to thy tabernacles.

4. Then will I go unto the altar of God,

4. unto God my exceeding joy:

4. yea, upon the harp will I praise thee,

4. O God my God.

5. Why art thou cast down, O my soul?

5. And why art thou disquieted within me?

5. Hope in God: for I shall yet praise him,

5. who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
