1. Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation; O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!
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. O send out Your light and Your truth, let them lead me; Let them bring me to Your holy hill And to Your dwelling places.
