Tehillim 43

1Vindicate me, O Elohim,

and plead my cause against a nation lo chasid;

O deliver me from the ish mirmah v'avlah

(deceitful and unjust man) .

2For Thou art the Elohei Ma'oz of me.

Why dost Thou cast me off?

Why must I go mourning

because of the oppression of the oyev?

3O send out Thy Ohr and Thy Emes;

let them guide me;

let them bring me unto Thy Har Kodesh,

and to Thy Mishkan.

4Then will I go unto the Mizbe'ach of Elohim,

unto El my exceeding joy;

yea, upon the kinnor will I praise Thee,

O Elohim Elohai.

5Why art thou cast down, O my nefesh?

And why art thou disquieted within me?

Hope in Elohim; for I shall yet praise Him,

Who is the Yeshu'ot of my countenance, and Elohai.
