詩篇 43

1 神よねがはくは我をさばき 情しらぬ民にむかひてわが訟をあげつらひ詭計おほきよこしまなる人より我をたすけいだし給へ

Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation. Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men.

2 なんぢはわが力の神なり なんぞ我をすてたまひしや 何ぞわれは仇の暴虐によりてかなしみありくや

For you are the God of my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 願くはなんぢの光となんぢの眞理とをはなち我をみちびきてその聖山とその帷幄とにゆかしめたまへ

Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy hill, to your tents.

4 さらばわれ神の祭壇にゆき又わがよろこびよろこぶ神にゆかん ああ神よわが神よわれ琴をもてなんぢを讃たたへん

Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy. I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.

5 ああわが霊魂よなんぢなんぞうなたるるや なんぞわが衷におもひみだるるや なんぢ神によりて望をいだけ 我なほわが面のたすけなるわが神をほめたたふべければなり

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him: my Saviour, my helper, and my God.
