1 Psalm of David.
  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.
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.
