Psalms 43

1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

שָׁפְטֵנִי אֱלֹהִים ׀ וְרִיבָה רִיבִי מִגּוֹי לֹא־חָסִיד מֵאִישׁ־מִרְמָה וְעַוְלָה תְפַלְּטֵֽנִי׃

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?

כִּֽי־אַתָּה ׀ אֱלֹהֵי מָֽעוּזִּי לָמָה זְנַחְתָּנִי לָֽמָּה־קֹדֵר אֶתְהַלֵּךְ בְּלַחַץ אוֹיֵֽב׃

3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me to thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

שְׁלַח־אוֹרְךָ וַאֲמִתְּךָ הֵמָּה יַנְחוּנִי יְבִיאוּנִי אֶל־הַֽר־קָדְשְׁךָ וְאֶל־מִשְׁכְּנוֹתֶֽיךָ׃

4 Then will I go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy: yes, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

וְאָבוֹאָה ׀ אֶל־מִזְבַּח אֱלֹהִים אֶל־אֵל שִׂמְחַת גִּילִי וְאוֹדְךָ בְכִנּוֹר אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהָֽי׃

5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, [who] is the health of my countenance, and my God.

מַה־תִּשְׁתּוֹחֲחִי ׀ נַפְשִׁי וּֽמַה־תֶּהֱמִי עָלָי הוֹחִילִי לֽ͏ֵאלֹהִים כִּי־עוֹד אוֹדֶנּוּ יְשׁוּעֹת פָּנַי וֵֽאלֹהָֽי׃
