Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people, from the deceitful and unjust man deliver me!

כִּי אַתָּ֬ה ׀ אֱלֹהֵ֣י מָ֭עוּזִּי לָמָ֣ה זְנַחְתָּ֑נִי לָמָּ֤ה קֹדֵ֖ר אֶתְהַלֵּ֣ךְ בְּלַ֥חַץ אוֹיֵֽב׃

KJVFor thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

For you are the God in whom I take refuge; why have you rejected me? Why do I go about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

שְׁלַח אֽוֹרְךָ֥ וַאֲמִתְּךָ֗ הֵ֫מָּ֥ה יַ֭נְחוּנִי יְבִיא֣וּנִי אֶל הַר קָדְשְׁךָ֑ וְ֝אֶל מִשְׁכְּנוֹתֶֽיךָ׃

KJVO send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling!

וְ֭אָב֣וֹאָה אֶל מִזְבַּ֣ח אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֶל אֵ֘ל שִׂמְחַ֥ת גִּ֝ילִ֗י וְאוֹדְךָ֥ בְכִנּ֗וֹר אֱלֹהִ֗ים אֱלֹהָֽי׃

KJVThen 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.

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy, and I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God.

מַה תִּשְׁתּ֘וֹחֲחִ֤י נַפְשִׁ֗י וּמַ֫ה תֶּהֱמִ֥י עָלָ֑י הוֹחִ֥ילִי לֵ֝אלֹהִ֗ים כִּי ע֤וֹד ׀ אוֹדֶ֗נּוּ יְשׁוּעֹ֥ת פָּנַ֗י וֵֽאלֹהָֽי׃

KJVWhy 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.

Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God.
