The third night of the soul

(Put me right), O God, and defend my cause (against her)

From ungodly people;
from (one) who (is) deceitful and unjust
You deliver me!

For you are the God in whom I take refuge.

Why have you cast me off?

Why (did it become dark

Do I go round)

because of the oppression of the enemy?

O send out your light and your truth;

let them lead me;

let them bring me to your holy hill

and to your dwelling.

Then I will (make her) go to the altar of God,

to God my exceeding joy;

and I will praise you with the harp,

O God, my God.

Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you (roaring against) me?

Hope in God;
for I shall again praise him,
(salvations
my face)
and my God.
