1 Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation.

Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men.

2 For you are the God of my strength. Why have you rejected me?

Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Oh, send out your light and your truth.

Let them lead me.

Let them bring me to your holy hill,

to your tents.

4 Then I will go to the altar of God,

to God, my exceeding joy.

I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.

5 Why are you in despair, my soul?

Why are you disturbed within me?

Hope in God!

For I shall still praise him:

my Savior, my helper, and my God.

1 神啊! 求你为我伸冤, 为我的案件向不敬虔的国申辩; 求你救我脱离诡诈和不义的人;

2 因为你是赐我力量的 神。你为什么弃绝我呢?我为什么因仇敌的压迫徘徊悲哀呢?

3 求你发出你的亮光和真理, 好引导我, 带我到你的圣山, 到你的居所。

4 我就走到 神的祭坛前, 到 神、我极大的喜乐那里。 神啊! 我的 神啊! 我要弹琴称赞你。

5 我的心哪! 你为什么沮丧呢?为什么在我里面不安呢?应当等候 神; 因为我还要称赞他, 他是我面前的救助、我的 神。
