Psalms 43

NCV

NIV

1 God, defend me. Argue my case against those who don't follow you. Save me from liars and those who do evil.
1 Vindicate me, my God, and plead my cause against an unfaithful nation. Rescue me from those who are deceitful and wicked.
2 God, you are my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why am I sad and troubled by my enemies?
2 You are God my stronghold. Why have you rejected me? Why must I go about mourning, oppressed by the enemy?
3 Send me your light and truth to guide me. Let them lead me to your holy mountain, to where you live.
3 Send me your light and your faithful care, let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God who is my joy and happiness. I will praise you with a harp, God, my God.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my joy and my delight. I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God.
5 Why am I so sad? Why am I so upset? and keep praising him, my Savior and my God.
5 Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.
