As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. | As a deer longs for flowing streams, so my soul longs for you, O God. |
My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? | My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and behold the face of God? |
|
Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. | Deep calls to deep at the thunder of your cataracts; all your waves and your billows have gone over me. |
Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. | By day the Lord commands his steadfast love, and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life. |
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God. | Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my help and my God. |
