Psalm 43

English Standard Version



1 Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause against an ungodly people, from the deceitful and unjust man deliver me! (1Sa 24:15; Ps 5:6; Ps 7:8; Ps 26:1) 2 For you are the God in whom I take refuge; why have you rejected me? Why do I go about mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? (Ps 31:4; Ps 42:9; Ps 44:9) 3 Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling! (Ps 2:6; Ps 40:11; Ps 46:4; Ps 57:3; Ps 84:1) 4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy, and I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God. 5 Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God. (Ps 42:5; Ps 42:11)

Psalm 43

Neue evangelistische Übersetzung

1 Verschaffe mir Recht, mein Gott! / Verteidige mich gegen ein treuloses Volk! / Lass mich den Lügnern und Betrügern entkommen! 2 Du warst doch immer mein Schutz. / Warum hast du mich verstoßen? / Warum ist alles dunkel um mich, / warum bedrängt mich der Feind? 3 Sende dein Licht und deine Wahrheit, / dass sie mich leiten, / mich bringen zu deinem heiligen Berg, / zu den Orten deiner Gegenwart; 4 dass ich komme zu Gottes Altar, / zum Gott meiner jubelnden Freude / und dich mit Zitherspiel preise, Gott, mein Gott! 5 Was bist du so verwirrt, meine Seele, / was stöhnst du in mir? / Hoffe auf Gott! / Denn ich werde ihn noch preisen, / ihn, meine Hilfe und meinen Gott!
