📚✭Vindicate me✭, O God, and plead my cause
against an ungodly nation✭.
Oh, deliver me from the deceitful
and unjust man;
2 📚For you are the God
of my strength✭.
Why do you cast me off✭?
Why do I go about mourning✭
because of the oppression
of the enemy?
3 📚✭Oh, send out your light✭
and your truth✭!
Let them lead me,
let them bring me to
your holy hill and
to your tabernacle.
4 📚✭Then I will go to the altar
of God, to God,
my exceeding joy.
Yes, I will praise you on the harp,
O God, my God.
5 📚Why are you cast down,
O my soul?
And why are you restless
within me?
Hope in God, for I will yet
praise him,
who is the health
of my countenance,
and my God.
