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.

Psaltaren 43
Svenska 1917
43 Skaffa mig rätt, o Gud, och utför min sak mot ett folk utan fromhet; rädda mig ifrån falska och orättfärdiga människor.
2 Ty du är den Gud som är mitt värn; varför har du förkastat mig? Varför måste jag gå sörjande, trängd av fiender?
3 Sänd ditt ljus och din sanning; må de leda mig, må de föra mig till ditt heliga berg och till dina boningar,
4 så att jag får gå in till Guds altare, till Gud, som är min glädje och fröjd, och tacka dig på harpa, Gud, min Gud.
5 Varför är du så bedrövad, min själ, och varför så orolig i mig? Hoppas på Gud; ty jag skall åter få tacka honom, min frälsning och min Gud.
