Psalmorum 43

1 Psalmus David. Iudica me Deus, et discerne causam meam de gente non sancta, ab homine iniquo, et doloso erue me.

Bring me justice, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation.

2 Quia tu es Deus fortitudo mea: quare me repulisti? et quare tristis incedo, dum affligit me inimicus?

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?

3 Emitte lucem tuam et veritatem tuam: ipsa me deduxerunt, et adduxerunt in montem sanctum tuum, et in tabernacula tua.

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

4 Et introibo ad altare Dei: ad Deum, qui lætificat iuventutem meam. Confitebor tibi in cithara Deus Deus meus:

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

5 quare tristis es anima mea? et quare conturbas me? Spera in Deo, quoniam adhuc confitebor illi: salutare vultus mei, et Deus meus.

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.
