Psalms 42

1 To the choirmaster a poem of [the] sons of Korah. Like a deer [which] it pants towards channels of water so being my it pants to you O God.

For the choirmaster. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul longs after You, O God.

2 It thirsts being my - for God for [the] God living when? will I go and I may appear? [the] presence of God.

My soul thirsts for God, the living God. When shall I come and appear in God’s presence?

3 It has been of me tear[s] my food by day and night when say to me all the day where? [is] God your.

My tears have been my food both day and night, while men ask me all day long, “Where is your God?”

4 These [things] I will remember - and I will pour out on myself - soul my that I passed on - with the crowd I led them to [the] house of God with [the] sound of a shout of joy and thanksgiving a multitude celebrating a festival.

These things come to mind as I pour out my soul: how I walked with the multitude, leading the procession to the house of God with shouts of joy and praise.

5 Why? are you bowed down - O soul my and were you in turmoil? on me wait for God for again I will give thanks to him [the] salvation of presence his.

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him for the salvation of His presence.

6 O God my on me being my it is bowed down there-fore I will remember you from [the] land of [the] Jordan and Hermon from mount Mizar.

O my God, my soul despairs within me. Therefore I remember You from the land of Jordan and the peaks of Hermon— even from Mount Mizar.

7 Deep to deep [is] calling to [the] sound waterfalls your all breakers your and waves your over me they have passed.

Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls; all Your breakers and waves have rolled over me.

8 By day - he commands Yahweh - covenant loyalty his and in the night (song his *Q(K)*) [is] with me a prayer to [the] God of life my.

The LORD decrees His loving devotion by day, and at night His song is with me as a prayer to the God of my life.

9 I will say - to God rock my why? have you forgotten me why? mourning do I walk in [the] oppression of an enemy.

I say to God my Rock, “Why have You forgotten me? Why must I walk in sorrow because of the enemy’s oppression?”

10 With a shattering - in bones my they have taunted me opposers my when say they to me all the day where? [is] God your.

Like the crushing of my bones, my enemies taunt me, while they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?”

11 Why? are you bowed down - O soul my and why? are you in turmoil on me wait for God for again I will give thanks to him [the] salvation of face my and God my.

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.
