42:1 For the choir director. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. As a deer longs for streams of water, so I long for You, God.
42:2 I thirst for God, the living God. When can I come and appear before God?
42:3 My tears have been my food day and night, while all day long people say to me," Where is your God?"
42:4 I remember this as I pour out my heart: how I walked with many, leading the festive procession to the house of God, with joyful and thankful shouts.
42:5 Why am I so depressed? Why this turmoil within me? Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him, my Savior and my God.
42:6 I am deeply depressed; therefore I remember You from the land of Jordan and the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
42:7 Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls; all Your breakers and Your billows have swept over me.
42:8 The LORD will send His faithful love by day; His song will be with me in the night-- a prayer to the God of my life.
42:9 I will say to God, my rock," Why have You forgotten me? Why must I go about in sorrow because of the enemy's oppression?"
42:10 My adversaries taunt me, as if crushing my bones, while all day long they say to me," Where is your God?"
42:11 Why am I so depressed? Why this turmoil within me? Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him, my Savior and my God.
