Psalms

¹Unto the end. The understanding of the sons of Korah. ↗

²As the deer longs for fountains of water, so my soul longs for you, O God. ↗

³My soul has thirsted for the strong living God. When will I draw close and appear before the face of God? ↗

⁴My tears have been my bread, day and night. Meanwhile, it is said to me daily: ”Where is your God?“ ↗

⁵These things I have remembered; and my soul within me, I have poured out. For I will cross into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, all the way to the house of God, with a voice of exultation and confession, the sound of feasting. ↗

⁶Why are you sad, my soul? And why do you disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still confess to him: the salvation of my countenance, ↗

⁷and my God. My soul has been troubled within myself. Because of this, I will remember you from the land of the Jordan and from Hermon, from the little mountain. ↗

⁸Abyss calls upon abyss, with the voice of your floodgate. All your heights and your waves have passed over me. ↗

⁹In the daylight, the Lord has ordered his mercy; and in the night, a canticle to him. With me is a prayer to the God of my life. ↗

¹⁰I will say to God, ”You are my supporter. Why have you forgotten me? And why do I walk in mourning, while my adversary afflicts me?“ ↗

¹¹While my bones are being broken, my enemies, who trouble me, have reproached me. Meanwhile, they say to me every single day, ”Where is your God?“ ↗

¹²My soul, why are you saddened? And why do you disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still confess to him: the salvation of my countenance and my God. ↗
