< Psalmorum 43 >
1 psalmus David iudica me Deus et discerne causam meam de gente non sancta ab homine iniquo et doloso erue me
Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against a profane nation. O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2 quia tu es Deus fortitudo mea quare me reppulisti quare tristis incedo dum adfligit me inimicus
For thou are the God of my strength. Why have thou cast me off? Why do I go 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
O send out thy light and thy truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4 et introibo ad altare Dei ad Deum qui laetificat iuventutem meam confitebor tibi in cithara Deus Deus meus
Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy, and I will praise thee upon the harp, O God, my God.
5 quare tristis es anima mea et quare conturbas me spera in Deum quoniam adhuc; confitebor illi salutare vultus mei et; Deus meus
Why are thou cast down, O my soul? And why are thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God, for I shall yet praise him, the help of my countenance, and my God.
