Psalm 42
“As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after
thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come
and appear before God? My tears have been my meat day and night, while they
continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
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. 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. 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. Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy
waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. 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. I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me?
why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily
unto me, Where is thy God? 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.”
Praise ye the
Lord!!!
