< Psalms 43 >

1 Bring me justice, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation.
Psalmus David. [Judica me, Deus, et discerne causam meam de gente non sancta: ab homine iniquo et doloso erue me.
2 For you are the God of my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go about in mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
Quia tu es, Deus, fortitudo mea: quare me repulisti? et quare tristis incedo, dum affligit me inimicus?
3 Oh, send out your light and your truth, let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling.
Emitte lucem tuam et veritatem tuam: ipsa me deduxerunt, et adduxerunt in montem sanctum tuum, et in tabernacula tua.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy. I will praise you with the harp, God, my God.
Et introibo ad altare Dei, ad Deum qui lætificat juventutem meam. Confitebor tibi in cithara, Deus, Deus meus.
5 Why are you bowed down, my soul? Why are you upset within me? Hope in God, for again I will praise him who is my salvation and my God.
Quare tristis es, anima mea? et quare conturbas me? Spera in Deo, quoniam adhuc confitebor illi, salutare vultus mei, et Deus meus.]
