Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE
New Living Translation NLT
1 (42-1) <A psalm for David.> Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.
1
Declare me innocent, O God! Defend me against these ungodly people. Rescue me from these unjust liars.
2 (42-2) For thou art God my strength: why hast thou cast me off? and why do I go sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me?
2
For you are God, my only safe haven. Why have you tossed me aside? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies?
3 (42-3) Sent forth thy light and thy truth: they have conducted me, and brought me unto thy holy hill, and into thy tabernacles.
3
Send out your light and your truth; let them guide me. Let them lead me to your holy mountain, to the place where you live.
4 (42-4) And I will go in to the altar of God: to God who giveth joy to my youth.
4
There I will go to the altar of God, to God—the source of all my joy. I will praise you with my harp, O God, my God!
5 (42-5) To thee, O God my God, I will give praise upon the harp: why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me? (42-6) Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
5
Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again— my Savior and my God!
