8Yet the Lord will rcommand his lovingkindness in the daytime,

And sin the night his song shall be with me,

And my prayer unto the God of my life.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

and my God.

My soul is cast down within me;

therefore I remember you

from the land of Jordan and of Hermon,

from Mount Mizar.

Deep calls to deep

at the roar of your waterfalls;

all your breakers and your waves

have gone over me.

By day the Lord commands his steadfast love,

and at night his song is with me,

a prayer to the God of my life.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

My soul is downcast within me;

therefore I will remember you

from the land of the Jordan,

the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar.

Deep calls to deep

in the roar of your waterfalls;

all your waves and breakers

have swept over me.

By day the Lord directs his love,

at night his song is with me—

a prayer to the God of my life.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

I am deeply depressed;

therefore I remember you from the land of Jordan

and the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.

Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls;

all your breakers and your billows have swept over me.

The Lord will send his faithful love by day;

his song will be with me in the night—

a prayer to the God of my life.

NLTNew Living Translation

my God!

Now I am deeply discouraged,

but I will remember you—

even from distant Mount Hermon, the source of the Jordan,

from the land of Mount Mizar.

I hear the tumult of the raging seas

as your waves and surging tides sweep over me.

But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me,

and through each night I sing his songs,

praying to God who gives me life.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

O my God, within me my soul is in despair;

therefore I remember you from the land of Jordan

and the heights of Hermon, from the mountain of Mizar.

Deep is calling to deep

at the thunder of your waterfalls.

All your breakers and your waves

have passed over me.

By day Yahweh commands his loyal love,

and in the night his song is with me,

a prayer to the God of my life.
