43 Judge me, O God, and plead my case
againsta an unfaithfulb nation.
From a man of deceit and wickedness rescue me,
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 leadc me.
They shall bring me to ⌊your holy mountain⌋d
and to your dwelling places.
4 Thene I will go to the altar of God,
to God, ⌊my surpassing joy⌋,f
and I will praise you with lyre,
O God, my God.
5 Why are you ⌊in despair⌋,g O my soul?
And why are you disturbed within me?
Hope in God, because I will again praise him,
⌊my salvation⌋h and my God.
