| As a deer longs for running streams, so my soul longs for you, O God. | As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. |
| My soul thirsts for God, the living God. When shall I come to behold the face of God? | My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? |
|
| The depths of the sea resound in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and your breakers sweep over me. | Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me. |
| During the day the Lord grants his kindness, and at night his praise is with me, a prayer to the living God. | By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life. |
| Why are you so disheartened, O my soul? Why do you sigh within me? Place your hope in God; for I will once again praise him, my Savior and my God. | Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. |
