Psalms 42:1-6

1As the hartH354 pantethH6165 after the waterH4325 brooksH650, so pantethH6165 my soulH5315 after thee, O GodH430.12

2My soulH5315 thirstethH6770 for GodH430, for the livingH2416 GodH410: when shall I comeH935 and appearH7200 beforeH6440 GodH430?

3My tearsH1832 have been my meatH3899 dayH3119 and nightH3915, while they continuallyH3117 sayH559 unto me, Where is thy GodH430?

4When I rememberH2142 these things, I pour outH8210 my soulH5315 in me: for I had goneH5674 with the multitudeH5519, I wentH1718 with them to the houseH1004 of GodH430, with the voiceH6963 of joyH7440 and praiseH8426, with a multitudeH1995 that kept holydayH2287.

5Why art thou cast downH7817, O my soulH5315? and why art thou disquietedH1993 in me? hopeH3176 thou in GodH430: for I shall yet praiseH3034 him for the helpH3444 of his countenanceH6440.345

6O my GodH430, my soulH5315 is cast downH7817 within me: therefore will I rememberH2142 thee from the landH776 of JordanH3383, and of the HermonitesH2769, from the hillH2022 MizarH4706.6
