The Book of Psalms
Chapter 42
1 – A psalm for David. Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy : deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.
2 – For thou art God my strength : why hast thou cast me off? and why do I go sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me?
3 – Send forth thy light and thy truth : they have conducted me, and brought me unto thy holy hill, and into thy tabernacles.
4 – And I will go in to the altar of God : to God who giveth joy to my youth.
5 – To thee, O God my God, I will give praise upon the harp : why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me?
6 – Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him : the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
