| As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants after you, God. | As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. |
| My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? | My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? |
|
| Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls. All your waves and your billows have swept over me. | Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me. |
| Yahweh will command his loving kindness in the daytime. In the night his song shall be with me: a prayer to the God of my life. | 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 in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, 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. |
