< Psalms 43 >

1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O God, and discern my cause from that of a nation not holy; rescue me from a man unjust and deceitful.
Skaf mig Ret, o Gud, og strid for mig mod Folk, som ej kender til Mildhed, fri mig fra en falsk, uretfærdig Mand!
2 For you are God, my strength. Why have you rejected me? And why do I walk in sadness, while the adversary afflicts me?
Thi du er min Tilflugts Gud, hvi har du forstødt mig? Hvorfor skal jeg vandre sorgfuld, trængt af Fjender?
3 Send forth your light and your truth. They have guided me and led me, to your holy mountain and into your tabernacles.
Send dit Lys og din Sandhed, de lede mig, bringe mig til dit hellige Bjerg og til dine Boliger,
4 And I will enter, up to the altar of God, to God who enlivens my youthfulness. To you, O God, my God, I will confess upon a stringed instrument.
at jeg må komme til Guds Alter, til min Glædes Gud, juble og prise dig til Citer, Gud, min Gud!
5 Why are you sad, my soul? And why do you disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance and my God.
Hvorfor er du nedbøjet, Sjæl, hvi bruser du i mig? Bi efter Gud, thi end skal jeg takke ham, mit Åsyns Frelse og min Gud!
