1. Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people; from deceitful and unjust men deliver me!

2. For thou art the God in whom I take refuge; why hast thou cast me off? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3. Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me, let them bring me to thy holy hill and to thy dwelling!

4. Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; and I will praise thee with the lyre, O God, my God.

5. Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my help and my God.





“Não se desencoraje, pois, se na alma existe o contínuo esforço de melhorar, no final o Senhor a premia fazendo nela florir, de repente, todas as virtudes como num jardim florido.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
