# Psalm 42 To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah.
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day long, “Where is your God?”
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. These things I remember, as I pour out my soul: how I would go with the throng and lead them in procession to the house of God with glad shouts and songs of praise, a multitude keeping festival.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. and my God. My soul is cast down within me; therefore I remember you from the land of Jordan and of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your waves have gone over me.
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. By day the LORD commands his steadfast love, and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. I say to God, my rock: “Why have you forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. As with a deadly wound in my bones, my adversaries taunt me, while they say to me all the day long, “Where is your God?”
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God.
