rsv Psalms:42 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
To the choirmaster .
A Maskil of the Sons of Korah .
*
As a hart longs for flowing streams ,
so longs my soul for thee ,
O God .
*
My soul thirsts for God ,
for the living God .
When shall I come and behold the face of God ?
*
My tears have been my food day and night ,
while men say to me continually , "
Where is your God ?"
*
These things I remember ,
as I pour out my soul :
how I went with the throng ,
and led them in procession to the house of God ,
with glad shouts and songs of thanksgiving ,
a multitude keeping festival .
*
Why are you cast down ,
O my soul ,
and why are you disquieted within me ?
Hope in God ;
for I shall again praise him ,
my help
*
and my God .
My soul is cast down within me ,
therefore I remember thee from the land of Jordan and of Hermon ,
from Mount Mizar .
*
Deep calls to deep at the thunder of thy cataracts ;
all thy waves and thy billows have gone over me .
*
By day the LORD commands his steadfast love ;
and at night his song is with me ,
a prayer to the God of my life .
*
I say to God ,
my rock : "
Why hast thou forgotten me ?
Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy ?"
*
As with a deadly wound in my body ,
my adversaries taunt me ,
while they say to me continually , "
Where is your God ?" [ (
Psalms strkjv @
42:12 )
Why are you cast down ,
O my soul ,
and why are you disquieted within me ?
Hope in God ;
for I shall again praise him ,
my help and my God . ]
