­PSA 42:1  As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after

 thee, O God.

 

­PSA 42:2  My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and

 appear before God?

 

­PSA 42:3  My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say

 unto me, Where is thy God?

 

­PSA 42:4  When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had

 gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice

 of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

 

­PSA 42:5  Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me?

 hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.

 

­PSA 42:6  O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember

 thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.

 

­PSA 42:7  Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves

 and thy billows are gone over me.

 

­PSA 42:8  Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and

 in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my

 life.

 

­PSA 42:9  I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I

 mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

 

­PSA 42:10  As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they

 say daily unto me, Where is thy God?

 

­PSA 42:11  Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted

 within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of

 my countenance, and my God.
