< Psalms 43 >
1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O God, and plead my cause, against an ungodly nation: deliver me from the unjust and crafty man.
Dosudi mi pravo, Bože, i povedi parbu moju protiv čeljadi bezbožne, izbavi me od čovjeka zlobna i opaka!
2 For thou, O God, art my strength: wherefore hast thou cast me off? and why do I go sad of countenance, while the enemy oppresses [me]?
Jer ti si, Bože, zaklon moj: zašto me odbacuješ? Zašto obilazim žalostan, pritisnut dušmanima?
3 Send forth thy light and thy truth: they have led me, and brought me to thy holy mountain, and to thy tabernacles.
Pošlji svjetlost svoju i vjernost: nek' me vode, nek' me dovedu na tvoju svetu goru, u šatore tvoje!
4 And I will go in to the altar of God, to God who gladdens my youth: I will give thanks to thee on the harp, O God, my God.
I pristupit ću Božjem žrtveniku, Bogu, radosti svojoj. Harfom ću slaviti tebe, Bože, o Bože moj!
5 Wherefore art thou very sad, O my soul? and wherefore dost thou trouble me? Hope in God; for I will give thanks to him, [who is] the health of my countenance, [and] my God.
Što si mi, dušo, klonula i što jecaš u meni? U Boga se uzdaj, jer opet ću ga slaviti, spasenje svoje, Boga svog!
