New Century Version

Psalms 43

A Prayer for Protection

1 God, defend me.
    Argue my case against those who don't follow you.
    Save me from liars and those who do evil.
2 God, you are my strength.
    Why have you rejected me?
Why am I sad
    and troubled by my enemies?
3 Send me your light and truth
    to guide me.
Let them lead me to your holy mountain,
    to where you live.
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.

5 Why am I so sad?
    Why am I so upset?
I should put my hope in God
    and keep praising him,
    my Savior and my God.
