aI pour out my soul within me.
For I used to go with the multitude;
bI went with them to the house of God,
With the voice of joy and praise,
With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast.
And why are you disquieted within me?
bHope in God, for I shall yet praise Him
1For the help of His countenance.
Therefore I will remember You from1 the land of the Jordan,
And from the heights of Hermon,
From the Hill Mizar.
aAll Your waves and billows have gone over me.
And bin the night His song shall be with me—
A prayer to the God of my life.
a“Why have You forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
My enemies1 reproach me,
aWhile they say to me all day long,
“Where is your God?”
| << Psalms 42:5 | Psalms 42:7 >> |
