Psaltaren 43
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
43 Gud, försvara mig mot dessa hjärtlösa och svekfulla människors anklagelser för jag är oskyldig!
2 Du, o Gud, är min enda tillflykt. Varför har du ställt mig åt sidan? Varför måste jag känna av mina fienders förtryck?
3 Sänd ditt ljus och din sanning! Låt dem leda mig till ditt tempel på Sion, ditt heliga berg!
4 Där ska jag med jublande glädje gå till Guds altare och prisa honom. Med min harpa ska jag spela inför min Gud.
5 Min själ, varför är du så orolig och ledsen? Lita på Gud! Jag ska än en gång prisa honom för hans underbara hjälp. Han ska få mig att be igen, för han är min Gud!
