PSALM 42
Thirsting for God in Trouble and Exile.
For the choir director. A †Maskil of the sons of Korah.
1 As the deer 1pants for the water brooks,
So my soul 1apants for You, O God.
2 My soul athirsts for God, for the bliving God;
When shall I come and 1cappear before God?
3 My atears have been my food day and night,
While they bsay to me all day long, “Where is your God?”
4 These things I remember and I apour out my soul within me.
For I bused to go along with the throng and 1lead them in procession to the house of God,
With the voice of cjoy and thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.
5 aWhy are you 1bin despair, O my soul?
And why have you become cdisturbed within me?
2dHope in God, for I shall 3again praise 4Him
For the 5ehelp of His presence.
6 O my God, my soul is 1in despair within me;
Therefore I aremember You from bthe land of the Jordan
And the 2peaks of cHermon, from Mount Mizar.
7 Deep calls to deep at the sound of Your waterfalls;
All Your abreakers and Your waves have rolled over me.
8 The Lord will acommand His lovingkindness in the daytime;
And His song will be with me bin the night,
A prayer to cthe God of my life.
9 I will say to God amy rock, “Why have You forgotten me?
Why do I go bmourning 1because of the coppression of the enemy?”
10 As a shattering of my bones, my adversaries revile me,
While they asay to me all day long, “Where is your God?”
11 aWhy are you 1in despair, O my soul?
And why have you become disturbed within me?
2Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him,
The 3help of my countenance and my God.
