Psalms 42:6-11

6My soul is discouraged. That is why I will remember you in the land of Jordan, on the peaks of Hermon, on Mount Mizar.

7One deep sea calls to another at the roar of your waterspouts. All the whitecaps on your waves have swept over me.

8The Lord commands his mercy during the day, and at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life.

9I will ask God, my rock, “Why have you forgotten me? Why must I walk around in mourning while the enemy oppresses me?”

10With a shattering blow to my bones, my enemies taunt me. They ask me all day long, “Where is your God?”

11Why are you discouraged, my soul? Why are you so restless? Put your hope in God, because I will still praise him. He is my savior and my God.
