תְהִלִּים 43

1 שָׁפְטֵ֤נִי אֱלֹהִ֨ים ׀ וְרִ֘יבָ֤ה רִיבִ֗י מִגֹּ֥וי לֹא־חָסִ֑יד מֵ֤אִישׁ־מִרְמָ֖ה וְעַוְלָ֣ה תְפַלְּטֵֽנִי׃

Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against a profane nation. O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

2 כִּֽי־אַתָּ֤ה ׀ אֱלֹהֵ֣י מָֽעוּזִּי֮ לָמָ֪ה זְנַ֫חְתָּ֥נִי לָֽמָּה־קֹדֵ֥ר אֶתְהַלֵּ֗ךְ בְּלַ֣חַץ אֹויֵֽב׃

For thou are the God of my strength. Why have thou cast me off? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 שְׁלַח־אֹורְךָ֣ וַ֭אֲמִתְּךָ הֵ֣מָּה יַנְח֑וּנִי יְבִיא֥וּנִי אֶל־הַֽר־קָ֝דְשְׁךָ֗ וְאֶל־מִשְׁכְּנֹותֶֽיךָ׃

O send out thy light and thy truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

4 וְאָבֹ֤ואָה ׀ אֶל־מִזְבַּ֬ח אֱלֹהִ֗ים אֶל־אֵל֮ שִׂמְחַ֪ת גִּ֫ילִ֥י וְאֹודְךָ֥ בְכִנֹּ֗ור אֱלֹהִ֥ים אֱלֹהָֽי׃

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

5 מַה־תִּשְׁתֹּ֬וחֲחִ֨י ׀ נַפְשִׁי֮ וּֽמַה־תֶּהֱמִ֪י עָ֫לָ֥י הֹוחִ֣ילִי לֽ͏ֵ֭אלֹהִים כִּי־עֹ֣וד אֹודֶ֑נּוּ יְשׁוּעֹ֥ת פָּ֝נַ֗י וֵֽאלֹהָֽי׃

Why are thou cast down, O my soul? And why are thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God, for I shall yet praise him, the help of my countenance, and my God.
