Psalms 43

Send Out Your Light

1Judge me, O God, and contend my contention against a nation not godly; from a man^a of deceit and injustice deliver me.
2For You are the God of my stronghold; why have You cast me off? Why do I go about in mourning under the oppression of the enemy?
3Send out Your light and Your truth; they shall lead me; they shall bring me to the mountain of Your holiness and to Your tabernacles^b.
4And I will go to the altar of God, to God, the joy of my gladness; and I will praise You upon the harp, O God, my God.
5Why are you bowed down, O my soul^c? And why do you moan within me? Hope in God, for yet I shall praise Him, the salvations (Yeshuah) of my face, and my God.
