42:1 Like a stag that bellows over the brook of waters, so also my soul bellows for you, Lord Jehovah!
42:2 My soul is thirsty for you, Living God! When shall I come and see your face, oh, God?
42:3 My tears have been food for me by day and by night, while they have been saying to me every day, “Where is your God?”
42:4 I remembered these things and my soul was troubled, therefore I shall enter into your strong shelter, unto the house of God; many rejoice with the voice of praise and thanksgiving!
42:5 Why are you troubled, my soul, and why have you perplexed me? Wait for God, because again I shall praise him, the Savior of my whole being, and my God.
42:6 My soul was troubled against me, therefore I have remembered you from the land of Jordan and from Hermon and from Mount Zora.
42:7 The Deep to deep calls The Voice to the voice of the waters of your fountains. All your storms and your waves passed over me.
42:8 By day Lord Jehovah will command his mercies and his songs in the night; prayer is with me unto the living God.
42:9 I have said to God, “Why have you forgotten me, and why do I walk sadly in distress of my enemies?”
42:10 In the breaking of my bones, my enemies reproached me as they have been saying to me every day, “Where is your God?”
42:11 Why have you agitated me, my soul? And why have you perplexed me? Look for God, because I shall again praise him, The Savior of my entire being, and my God.
