< 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.
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。
2 For you, O God, are my strength: therefore have you cast me off? and why do I go sad of countenance, while the enemy oppresses [me]?
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?
3 Send forth your light and your truth: they have led me, and brought me to your holy mountain, and to your tabernacles.
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。
4 And I will go in to the altar of God, to God who gladdens my youth: I will give thanks to you on the harp, O God, my God.
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。
5 Therefore are you very sad, O my soul? and therefore do you trouble me? Hope in God; for I will give thanks to him, [who is] the health of my countenance, [and] my God.
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
