Psalms 42
Unto the end, understanding for the sons of Core.
As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so
my soul panteth after thee, O God.
My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when
shall I come and appear before the face of God?
My tears have been any bread day and night, whilst it
is said to me daily : Where is thy God?
These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in
me : for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful
tabernacle, even to the house of God : With the voice
of joy and praise; the noise of one feasting.
Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble
me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him
: the salvation of my countenance,
and my God. My soul is troubled within myself : therefore
will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermoniim,
from the little hill.
Deep calleth on deep, at the noise of thy flood-gates.
All thy heights and thy billows have passed over me.
In the daytime the Lord hath commanded his mercy; and
a canticle to him in the night. With me is prayer to
the God of my life.
I will say to God : Thou art my support. Why hast thou
forgotten me? and why go I mourning, whilst my enemy
afflicteth me?
Whilst my bones are broken, my enemies who trouble me
have reproached me; Whilst they say to me day be day
: Where is thy God?
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why dost thou
disquiet me? Hope thou in God, for I will still give
praise to him : the salvation of my countenance, and
my God. |
