Send out your light

1
A Psalm of David. Judge me, O God, and discern my cause from that of a nation not holy; rescue me from a man unjust and deceitful.
2
For you are God, my strength. Why have you rejected me? And why do I walk in sadness, while the adversary afflicts me?
3
Send forth your light and your truth. They have guided me and led me, to your holy mountain and into your tabernacles.
4
And I will enter, up to the altar of God, to God who enlivens my youthfulness. To you, O God, my God, I will confess upon a stringed instrument.
5
Why are you sad, my soul? And why do you disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance and my God.(a)

Fußnoten

(a)42:5 The Clementine Vulgate has only five verses in Psalm 42. Therefore, the CPDV uses the same arrangement. Other versions arrange the same words into six verses for this Psalm.(Conte)

Send out your light

1
Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation. Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men.
2
For you are the God of my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3
Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy hill, to your tents.
4
Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy. I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.
5
Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God.
