Send Out Your Light and Your Truth

43 (A)Vindicate me, O God, and (B)defend my cause
    against an ungodly people,
from (C)the deceitful and unjust man
    deliver me!
For you are (D)the God in whom I take refuge;
    why have you (E)rejected me?
Why do I (F)go about mourning
    because of the oppression of the enemy?

(G)Send out your light and your truth;
    let them lead me;
let them bring me to your (H)holy hill
    and to your (I)dwelling!
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.

(J)Why are you cast down, O my soul,
    and why are you in turmoil within me?
(K)Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
    my salvation and my God.

流亡異鄉者的禱告

43 上帝啊,
求你為我伸張正義,
在不虔敬的人面前為我辯護,
救我脫離詭詐邪惡的人。
你是保護我的上帝,
你為何丟棄我?
為何讓我受仇敵的攻擊,
使我哀傷不已呢?
求你以光明和真理引導我,
領我到你的聖山,到你的居所。
我要到上帝的祭壇前,
到賜我喜樂的上帝面前。
上帝啊,我的上帝,
我要彈琴讚美你。
我的心啊!
你為何沮喪?為何煩躁?
要仰望上帝,
因為我還要讚美祂——我的救主,我的上帝。
