Prayer for Help.

Psa 43:1

Vindicate me, God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation;

[fn]Save me from the deceitful and unjust person!

Psa 43:2

For You are the God of my strength; why have You rejected me?

Why do I go about mourning [fn]because of the oppression of the enemy?

Psa 43:3

Send out Your light and Your truth, they shall lead me;

They shall bring me to Your holy hill

And to Your dwelling places.

Psa 43:4

Then I will go to the altar of God,

To God [fn]my exceeding joy;

And I will praise You on the lyre, God, my God.

Psa 43:5

Why are you [fn]in despair, my soul?

And why are you restless within me?

Wait for God, for I will [fn]again praise [fn]Him

For the [fn]help of His presence, my God.
