2 You are God my stronghold.

Why have you rejected me?

Why must I go about mourning,

oppressed by the enemy?

3 Send me your light and your faithful care,

let them lead me;

let them bring me to your holy mountain,

to the place where you dwell.

2 For you are the God in whom I take refuge;

why have you rejected me?

Why do I go about mourning

because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Send out your light and your truth;

let them lead me;

let them bring me to your holy hill

and to your dwelling!

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.

2 For you are God, my only safe haven.

Why have you tossed me aside?

Why must I wander around in grief,

oppressed by my enemies?

3 Send out your light and your truth;

let them guide me.

Let them lead me to your holy mountain,

to the place where you live.

2 For You are the God of my strength;

Why do You cast me off?

Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Oh, send out Your light and Your truth!

Let them lead me;

Let them bring me to Your holy hill

And to Your tabernacle.

2 God, you are my strength.

Why have you rejected me?

Why am I sad

and troubled by my enemies?

3 Send me your light and truth

to guide me.

Let them lead me to your holy mountain,

to where you live.

2 For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou cast me off?

Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me:

Let them bring me unto thy holy hill,

And to thy tabernacles.

2 For thou art the God of my strength: why hast thou cast me off? why go I about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? 3 Send out thy light and thy truth: they shall lead me, they shall bring me to thy holy mount, and unto thy habitations.

2 You are my fortress, O God! 

Why have you rejected me? 

Why must I walk around in mourning 

while the enemy oppresses me? 

3 Send your light and your truth. 

Let them guide me. 

Let them bring me to your holy mountain 

and to your dwelling place. 

2 For You are the God of my refuge.

Why have You rejected me?

Why must I go about in sorrow

because of the enemy’s oppression?

3 Send Your light and Your truth; let them lead me.

Let them bring me to Your holy mountain,

to Your dwelling place.

2 For you are the God in whom I take refuge;

why have you cast me off?

Why must I walk about mournfully

because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 O send out your light and your truth;

let them lead me;

let them bring me to your holy hill

and to your dwelling.

2 because you are the God of my refuge.

Why have you rejected me?

Why must I go about mourning

because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Send your light and your truth;

they shall lead me.

They shall bring me to your holy mountain

and to your dwelling places.

2 You are God, my place of safety.

Why have you turned your back on me?

Why must I go around in sorrow?

Why am I beaten down by my enemies?

3 Send out your light and your truth.

Let them guide me.

Let them bring me back to your holy mountain,

to the place where you live.

2 For You are the God of my strength; why have You rejected me?

Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 O send out Your light and Your truth, let them lead me;

Let them bring me to Your holy hill

And to Your dwelling places.
