1 Judge me, Oh God, and plead my cause against a nation that is not holy. 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 go I 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 tabernacles.
4 Then will I go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy: yes, upon the harp will I praise you, Oh God my God.
5 Why are you cast down, my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Wait expectantly for God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.




King James Version (KJV)
1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
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?
3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
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.


Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
1 Judge me, O God, And plead my cause against a nation not pious, From a man of deceit and perverseness Thou dost deliver me,
2 For thou [art] the God of my strength. Why hast Thou cast me off? Why mourning do I go up and down, In the oppression of an enemy?
3 Send forth Thy light and Thy truth, They -- they lead me, they bring me in, Unto Thy holy hill, and unto Thy tabernacles.
4 And I go in unto the altar of God, Unto God, the joy of my rejoicing. And I thank Thee with a harp, O God, my God.
5 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The salvation of my countenance, and my God!
