Chapter 42

1

For the Chief Musician. Maschil of the sons of Korah. As the hart panteth after the water brooks, So panteth my soul after thee, O God.

2

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: When shall I come and appear before God?

3

My tears have been my food day and night, While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

4

These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, How I went with the throng, and led them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping holyday.

5

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And [why] art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him [For] the help of his countenance.

6

O my God, my soul is cast down within me: Therefore do I remember thee from the land of the Jordan, And the Hermons, from the hill Mizar.

7

Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterfalls: All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.

8

[Yet] Jehovah will command his lovingkindness in the day-time; And in the night his song shall be with me, [Even] a prayer unto the God of my life.

9

I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

10

As with a sword in my bones, mine adversaries reproach me, While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

11

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him, [Who is] the help of my countenance, and my God.
