1(44) For the end, a Psalm for instruction, for the sons of Core. O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us, the work which you wrought in their days, in the days of old.
1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2Your hand utterly destroyed the heathen, and you did plant them: you did afflict the nations, and cast them out.
2For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3For they inherited not the land by their [own] sword, and their [own] arm did not deliver them ; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your countenance, because you were well pleased in them.
3O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4You are indeed my King and my God, who command deliverances for Jacob.
4Then 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.
5In you will we push down our enemies, and in your name will we bring to nothing them that rise up against us.
5Why 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.
