1. God, defend me.Argue my case against those who don’t follow you.Save me from liars and those who do evil.
2. God, you are my strength.Why have you rejected me?Why am I sadand troubled by my enemies?
3. Send me your light and truthto guide me.Let them lead me to your holy mountain,to where you live.
4. Then I will go to the altar of God,to God who is my joy and happiness.I will praise you with a harp,God, my God.
5. Why am I so sad?Why am I so upset?I should put my hope in Godand keep praising him,my Savior and my God.
