1

As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants after you, #God.

2

My soul thirsts for #God, for the living #God. When shall I come and appear before #God?

3

My tears have been my food day and night, while they continually ask me, "Where is your #God?"

4

These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to #God's house, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.

5

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in #God! For I shall still praise him for the saving help of his presence.

6

My #God, my soul is in despair within me. Therefore I remember you from the land of the Jordan, the heights of Hermon, from the hill Mizar.

7

Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls. All your waves and your billows have swept over me.

8

Yahweh will command his loving kindness in the daytime. In the night his song shall be with me: a prayer to the #God of my life.

9

I will ask #God, my rock, "Why have you forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?"

10

As with a sword in my bones, my adversaries reproach me, while they continually ask me, "Where is your #God?"

11

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in #God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my #God.
