Psalms 43

1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; deliver me from the deceitful and unrighteous man.

Sodi me, oh Bog in zagovarjaj mojo pravdo proti brezbožnemu narodu. Oh osvobodi me pred varljivim in nepravičnim človekom.

2 For thou art the God of my strength: why hast thou cast me off? why go I about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Kajti ti si Bog moje moči. Zakaj me zavračaš? Zakaj hodim in žalujem zaradi sovražnikovega zatiranja?

3 Send out thy light and thy truth: they shall lead me, they shall bring me to thy holy mount, and unto thy habitations.

Oh pošlji svojo svetlobo in svojo resnico, naj me vodita; naj me privedeta k tvoji sveti gori in k tvojim šotorskim svetiščem.

4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto the God of the gladness of my joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God, my God.

Potem bom stopil k Božjemu oltarju, k Bogu moje silne radosti; da, na harfo te bom hvalil, oh Bog, moj Bog.

5 Why art thou cast down, 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.

Zakaj si potrta, oh moja duša? In zakaj si vznemirjena znotraj mene? Upaj v Boga, kajti še bom hvalil njega, ki je zdravje mojega obličja in moj Bog.
