Psalm 43
New King James Version
Prayer to God in Time of Trouble
43 Vindicate (A)me, O God,
And (B)plead my cause against an ungodly nation;
Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!
2 For You are the God of my strength;
Why do You cast me off?
(C)Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3 (D)Oh, send out Your light and Your truth!
Let them lead me;
Let them bring me to (E)Your holy hill
And to Your [a]tabernacle.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God,
To God my exceeding joy;
And on the harp I will praise You,
O God, my God.
5 (F)Why are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
For I shall yet praise Him,
The [b]help of my countenance and my God.

Mga Awit 43
Ang Biblia, 2001
43 O Diyos, pawalang-sala mo ako, at ang aking usapin ay ipagtanggol mo
laban sa isang bayang masama;
iligtas mo ako sa mga taong hindi makatarungan at mandaraya.
2 Sapagkat ikaw ang Diyos na aking kalakasan,
bakit mo ako itinakuwil?
Bakit ako lalakad na tumatangis
dahil sa kaaway kong malupit?
3 O suguin mo ang iyong liwanag at iyong katotohanan;
patnubayan nawa ako ng mga iyon,
dalhin nawa nila ako sa iyong banal na bundok,
at sa iyong tirahan!
4 Kung magkagayo'y pupunta ako sa dambana ng Diyos,
sa Diyos na aking malabis na kagalakan;
at pupurihin kita ng alpa,
O Diyos, aking Diyos.
5 Bakit ka nanlulumo, O kaluluwa ko?
At bakit ka nababagabag sa loob ko?
Umasa ka sa Diyos; sapagkat ikaw ay muling pupurihin ko,
ang tulong sa aking harapan, at Diyos ko.
