1 Judge me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation. Rescue me from deceitful and unjust people. 2 You are my fortress, O God! Why have you rejected me? Why must I walk around in mourning while the enemy oppresses me? 3 Send your light and your truth. Let them guide me. Let them bring me to your holy mountain and to your dwelling place. 4 Then let me go to the altar of God, to God my highest joy, and I will give thanks to you on the lyre, O God, my God. 5 Why are you discouraged, my soul? Why are you so restless? Put your hope in God, because I will still praise him. He is my savior and my God. GOD'S WORD® is a copyrighted work of God's Word to the Nations.
