Psalms 42

1 To the chief music-maker. Maschil. Of the sons of Korah. Like the desire of the roe for the water-streams, so is my soul's desire for you, O God.

伶長にうたはしめたるコラの子のをしへの歌 ああ神よしかの渓水をしたひ喘ぐがごとく わが霊魂もなんぢをしたひあえぐなり

2 My soul is dry for need of God, the living God; when may I come and see the face of God?

わがたましひは渇けるごとくに神をしたふ 活神をぞしたふ 何れのときにか我ゆきて神のみまへにいでん

3 My tears have been my food day and night, while they keep saying to me, Where is your God?

かれらが終日われにむかひて なんぢの神はいづくにありやとののしる間はただわが涙のみ昼夜そそぎてわが糧なりき

4 Let my soul be overflowing with grief when these things come back to my mind, how I went in company to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with the song of those who were keeping the feast.

われむかし群をなして祭日をまもる衆人とともにゆき歓喜と讃美のこゑをあげてかれらを神の家にともなへり 今これらのことを追想してわが衷よりたましひを注ぎいだすなり

5 Why are you crushed down, O my soul? and why are you troubled in me? put your hope in God; for I will again give him praise who is my help and my God.

ああわが霊魂よ なんぢ何ぞうなたるるや なんぞわが衷におもひみだるるや なんぢ神をまちのぞめ われに聖顔のたすけありて我なほわが神をめたたふべければなり

6 My soul is crushed down in me, so I will keep you in mind; from the land of Jordan and of the Hermons, from the hill Mizar.

わが神よわがたましひはわが衷にうなたる 然ばわれヨルダンの地よりヘルモンよりミザルの山より汝をおもひいづ

7 Deep is sounding to deep at the noise of your waterfalls; all your waves have gone rolling over me.

なんぢの大瀑のひびきによりて淵々よびこたへ なんぢの波なんぢの猛浪ことごとくわが上をこえゆけり

8 But the Lord will send his mercy in the daytime, and in the night his song will be with me, a prayer to the God of my life.

然はあれど昼はヱホバその憐憫をほどこしたまふ 夜はその歌われとともにあり 此うたはわがいのちの神にささぐる祈なり

9 I will say to God my Rock, Why have you let me go from your memory? why do I go in sorrow because of the attacks of my haters?

われわが磐なる神にいはん なんぞわれを忘れたまひしや なんぞわれは仇のしへたげによりて悲しみありくや

10 The cruel words of my haters are like a crushing of my bones; when they say to me every day, Where is your God?

わが骨もくだくるぼかりにわがてきはひねもす我にむかひて なんぢの神はいづくに心りやといひののしりつつ我をそしれり

11 Why are you crushed down, O my soul? and why are you troubled in me? put your hope in God; for I will again give him praise who is my help and my God.

ああわがたましひよ 汝なんぞうなたるるや 何ぞわがうちに思ひみだるるや なんぢ神をまちのぞめ われ尚わがかほの助なるわが神をほめたたふべければなり
