BOOK TWO: Psalms 42—72 Yearning for God in the Midst of Distresses
To the Chief Musician. A Contemplation of the sons of Korah.
4 When I remember these things,
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.
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.
5 aWhy are you1 cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
bHope in God, for I shall yet praise Him
1For the help of His countenance.
And why are you disquieted within me?
bHope in God, for I shall yet praise Him
1For the help of His countenance.
6 1O my God, my soul is cast down within me;
Therefore I will remember You from1 the land of the Jordan,
And from the heights of Hermon,
From the Hill Mizar.
Therefore I will remember You from1 the land of the Jordan,
And from the heights of Hermon,
From the Hill Mizar.
7 Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls;
aAll Your waves and billows have gone over me.
aAll Your waves and billows have gone over me.
8 The Lord will acommand His lovingkindness in the daytime,
And bin the night His song shall be with me—
A prayer to the God of my life.
And bin the night His song shall be with me—
A prayer to the God of my life.
9 I will say to God my Rock,
a“Why have You forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
a“Why have You forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
