< Psalms 42 >

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme to give instruction, committed to the sonnes of Korah. As the harte brayeth for the riuers of water, so panteth my soule after thee, O God.
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.
2 My soule thirsteth for God, euen for the liuing God: when shall I come and appeare before the presence of God?
It thirsts being my - for God for [the] God living when? will I go and I may appear? [the] presence of God.
3 My teares haue bin my meate day and night, while they dayly say vnto me, Where is thy God?
It has been of me tear[s] my food by day and night when say to me all the day where? [is] God your.
4 When I remembred these things, I powred out my very heart, because I had gone with the multitude, and ledde them into the House of God with the voyce of singing, and prayse, as a multitude that keepeth a feast.
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.
5 Why art thou cast downe, my soule, and vnquiet within me? waite on God: for I will yet giue him thankes for the helpe of his presence.
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.
6 My God, my soule is cast downe within me, because I remember thee, from the land of Iorden, and Hermonim, and from the mount Mizar.
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.
7 One deepe calleth another deepe by the noyse of thy water spoutes: all thy waues and thy floods are gone ouer me.
Deep to deep [is] calling to [the] sound waterfalls your all breakers your and waves your over me they have passed.
8 The Lord will graunt his louing kindenesse in the day, and in the night shall I sing of him, euen a prayer vnto the God of my life.
By day - he commands Yahweh - covenant loyalty his and in the night (song his *Qk) [is] with me a prayer to [the] God of life my.
9 I wil say vnto God, which is my rocke, Why hast thou forgotten mee? why goe I mourning, when the enemie oppresseth me?
I will say - to God rock my why? have you forgotten me why? mourning do I walk in [the] oppression of an enemy.
10 My bones are cut asunder, while mine enemies reproch me, saying dayly vnto me, Where is thy God?
With a shattering - in bones my they have taunted me opposers my when say they to me all the day where? [is] God your.
11 Why art thou cast downe, my soule? and why art thou disquieted within mee? waite on God: for I wil yet giue him thankes: he is my present helpe, and my God.
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.
