Psalms 43

1 Judge me, O God, and plead my plea with a nation that is not merciful;From the man◦ of deceit and perversity deliver me.
2 For Thou◦ art the God of my strength; why dost Thou cast· me ·off?Why do I go◦ in·​·black at the subjugation by the enemy?
3 O send·​·out Thy light and Thy truth;Let them◦ lead me;Let them bring· me ·in to▵ the mountain of Thy holiness,And to▵ Thy habitations.
4 And I will come to▵ the altar of God, to▵ God◦, the gladness of my rejoicing;And I will confess Thee with the harp, O God, my God.
5 What? Bowest· thyself ·down, O my soul?And what? Art· thou ·tumultuous upon me?Hope thou for God; for I shall still confess Him,The salvations of my faces1, and my God.

1For an explanation of “salvations of the faces,” see AE 412:27.
