Psalm 43
Chapter summary coming soon.
Verse 1. Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation; deliver me from deceitful and unjust men.
Verse 2. For You are the God of my refuge. Why have You rejected me? Why must I walk in sorrow because of the enemy’s oppression?
Verse 3. Send out Your light and Your truth; let them lead me. Let them bring me to Your holy mountain and to the place where You dwell.
Verse 4. Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my greatest joy. I will praise You with the harp, O God, my God.
Verse 5. Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.
