Psalmi 43

1 Dosudi mi pravo, Bože, i povedi parbu moju protiv čeljadi bezbožne, izbavi me od čovjeka zlobna i opaka!

Vindicate me, O God, and plead my cause, Against a nation, without lovingkindness, From the man of deceit and perversity, wilt thou deliver me?

2 Jer ti si, Bože, zaklon moj: zašto me odbacuješ? Zašto obilazim žalostan, pritisnut dušmanima?

For, thou, art my defending God—Wherefore hast thou rejected me? Wherefore in gloom should I wander, because of the oppression of an enemy?

3 Pošlji svjetlost svoju i vjernost: nek' me vode, nek' me dovedu na tvoju svetu goru, u šatore tvoje!

Send forth thy light and thy faithfulness, Let, them, lead me, Let them bring me into thy holy mountain, and into thy habitations:

4 I pristupit ću Božjem žrtveniku, Bogu, radosti svojoj. Harfom ću slaviti tebe, Bože, o Bože moj!

That I may go in unto the altar of God, Unto GOD, mine exultant joy, —That I may praise thee with the lyre, O God—mine own God!

5 Što si mi, dušo, klonula i što jecaš u meni? U Boga se uzdaj, jer opet ću ga slaviti, spasenje svoje, Boga svog!

Why shouldst thou be cast down, O my soul? And why shouldst thou moan over me, Wait thou for God, for yet shall I praise him, As the triumph of my presence, and my God.
