Psalmen 43
Schlachter 2000
Psalm 43
1 Schaffe mir Recht, o Gott, und führe meine Sache gegen ein unbarmherziges[a] Volk;
errette mich von dem Mann der Lüge und des Unrechts!
2 Denn du bist der Gott, der mich schützt;
warum verwirfst du mich?
Warum muss ich trauernd einhergehen,
weil mein Feind mich bedrängt?
3 Sende dein Licht und deine Wahrheit,
dass sie mich leiten,
mich bringen zu deinem heiligen Berg
und zu deinen Wohnungen,
4 dass ich komme zum Altar Gottes,
zu dem Gott, der meine Freude und Wonne ist,
und dich preise auf der Laute,
o Gott, mein Gott!
5 Was betrübst du dich, meine Seele,
und bist so unruhig in mir?
Harre auf Gott, denn ich werde ihm noch danken,
dass er meine Rettung und mein Gott ist!

Psalm 43
King James Version
43 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
2 For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 43

43 Vindicate (A)me, O God,
And (B)plead my cause against an ungodly nation;

Why do You cast me off?
(C)Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

And on the harp I will praise You,
O God, my God.
