1 Judge{H8199}{H8798)} me, O God{H430}, and plead{H7378}{H8798)} my cause{H7379} against an ungodly{H3808}{H2623} nation{H1471}: O deliver{H6403}{H8762)} me from the deceitful{H4820} and unjust{H5766} man{H376}.

2 For thou art the God{H430} of my strength{H4581}: why dost thou cast me off{H2186}{H8804)}? why go{H1980}{H8691)} I mourning{H6937}{H8802)} because of the oppression{H3906} of the enemy{H341}{H8802)}?

3 O send out{H7971}{H8798)} thy light{H216} and thy truth{H571}: let them lead{H5148}{H8686)} me; let them bring{H935}{H8686)} me unto thy holy{H6944} hill{H2022}, and to thy tabernacles{H4908}.

4 Then will I go{H935}{H8799)} unto the altar{H4196} of God{H430}, unto God{H410} my exceeding{H8057} joy{H1524}: yea, upon the harp{H3658} will I praise{H3034}{H8686)} thee, O God{H430} my God{H430}.

5 Why art thou cast down{H7817}{H8709)}, O my soul{H5315}? and why art thou disquieted{H1993}{H8799)} within me? hope{H3176}{H8685)} in God{H430}: for I shall yet praise{H3034}{H8686)} him, who is the health{H3444} of my countenance{H6440}, and my God{H430}.
