For the Chief Musician. Maschil of the sons of Korah. As the hart{H354} panteth{H6165} after the water{H4325} brooks,{H650} So panteth{H6165} my soul{H5315} after thee, O God.{H430}

My soul{H5315} thirsteth{H6770} for God,{H430} for the living{H2416} God:{H410} When shall I come{H935} and appear{H7200} before{H6440} God?{H430}

My tears{H1832} have been my food{H3899} day{H3119} and night,{H3915} While they continually{H3117} say{H559} unto me, Where is thy God?{H430}

These things I remember,{H2142} and pour out{H8210} my soul{H5315} within me, How I went{H5674} with the throng,{H5519} and led{H1718} them to the house{H1004} of God,{H430} With the voice{H6963} of joy{H7440} and praise,{H8426} a multitude{H1995} keeping holyday.{H2287}

Why art thou cast down,{H7817} O my soul?{H5315} And [why] art thou disquieted{H1993} within me? Hope{H3176} thou in God;{H430} for I shall yet praise{H3034} him [For] the help{H3444} of his countenance.{H6440}

O my God,{H430} my soul{H5315} is cast down{H7817} within me: Therefore do I remember{H2142} thee from the land{H776} of the Jordan,{H3383} And the Hermons,{H2769} from the hill{H2022} Mizar.{H4706}

Deep{H8415} calleth{H7121} unto deep{H8415} at the noise{H6963} of thy waterfalls:{H6794} All thy waves{H4867} and thy billows{H1530} are gone{H5674} over me.

[ Yet] Jehovah{H3068} will command{H6680} his lovingkindness{H2617} in the day-time;{H3119} And in the night{H3915} his song{H7892} shall be with me, [Even] a prayer{H8605} unto the God{H410} of my life.{H2416}

I will say{H559} unto God{H410} my rock,{H5553} Why hast thou forgotten{H7911} me? Why go{H3212} I mourning{H6937} because of the oppression{H3906} of the enemy?{H341}

As with a sword{H7524} in my bones,{H6106} mine adversaries{H6887} reproach{H2778} me, While they continually{H3117} say{H559} unto me, Where is thy God?{H430}

Why art thou cast down,{H7817} O my soul?{H5315} And why art thou disquieted{H1993} within me? Hope{H3176} thou in God;{H430} For I shall yet praise{H3034} him, [Who is] the help{H3444} of my countenance,{H6440} and my God.{H430}
