For the end, [a Psalm] for instruction, for
the sons of Core. 42:1 As the hart earnestly desires the fountains of
water, so my soul earnestly longs for thee, O Elohim.
42:2 My soul has thirsted for the living Elohim: when shall I come and appear
before Elohim?
42:3 My tears have been bread to me day and night, while they daily said to
me, Where is thy Elohim?
42:4 I remembered these things, and poured out my soul in me, for I will go
to the place of thy wondrous tabernacle, [even] to the house of Elohim, with a
voice of exultation and thanksgiving and of the sound of those who keep
festival.
42:5 Wherefore art thou very sad, O my soul? and wherefore dost thou trouble
me? hope in Elohim; for I will give thanks to him; [he is] the salvation of my
countenance.
42:6 O my Elohim, my soul has been troubled within me: therefore will I
remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Ermonites, from the little
hill.
42:7 Deep calls to deep at the voice of thy cataracts: all thy billows and
thy waves have gone over me.
42:8 By day Yehovah will command his mercy, and manifest [it] by night:
with me [is] prayer to the Elohim of my life.
42:9 I will say to Elohim, Thou art my helper; why hast thou forgotten me?
wherefore do I go sad of countenance, while the enemy oppresses [me]?
42:10 While my bones were breaking, they that afflicted me reproached me;
while they said to me daily, Where is thy Elohim?
42:11 Wherefore art thou very sad, O my soul? and wherefore dost thou
trouble me? hope in Elohim; for I will give thanks to him; [he is] the health
of my countenance, and my Elohim. |
To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons
of Korah. 42:1 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my
soul after thee, O Elohim.
42:2 My soul thirsteth for Elohim, for the living Elohim: when shall I come and
appear before Elohim?
42:3 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say
unto me, Where is thy Elohim?
42:4 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 Elohim, with the voice of
joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
42:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me?
hope thou in Elohim: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his
countenance.
42:6 O my Elohim, 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.
42:7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves
and thy billows are gone over me.
42:8 Yet Yehovah will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in
the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the Elohim of my life.
42:9 I will say unto Elohim my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I
mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
42:10 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say
daily unto me, Where is thy Elohim?
42:11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within
me? hope thou in Elohim: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my
countenance, and my Elohim. |
