詩篇 43

1 天主，求你為我伸冤，駁斥殘酷的人民，求你救我脫離欺詐和邪惡的人。

God, please vindicate me! Plead my case against an unfaithful nation; save me from these wicked and dishonest people.

2 天主，你是我的勇力，你為什麼驅逐我？為什麼讓我在仇人的壓迫下憂傷走過？

For you, God, are my protection—so why have you turned your back on me? Why must I go around weeping because of the attacks of my enemies?

3 天主，求你發出您的光明和真道：引導我，帶我到您的聖山和居所。

Send your light and your truth so they can guide me; let them lead me to your holy mountain, to the place where you live.

4 我就要走近天主的祭台前，走近我最喜悅的天主面前。我天主！我向您彈琴頌讚。

I will go to God's altar, to God who makes me truly happy. I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.

5 我的靈魂，你為何悲傷？為何憂苦？期望天主！我還要向天主頌禱，因為祂是我的救援，是我的天主

Why am I so discouraged? Why do I feel so sad? I will hope in God; I will praise him because he is the one who saves me—my God!
