- As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So my soul pants for You, God. - My soul thirsts for God, for the living God;
When shall I come and appear before God? - Deep calls to deep at the sound of Your waterfalls;
All Your breakers and Your waves have passed over me. - The Lord will send His goodness in the daytime;
And His song will be with me in the night,
A prayer to the God of my life. - Why are you in despair, my soul?
And why are you restless within me?
Wait for God, for I will again praise Him
For the help of His presence, my God. - For by their own sword they did not possess the land,
And their own arm did not save them,
But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence,
For You favored them. - God is our refuge and strength,
A very ready help in trouble. - Stop striving and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on the earth. - Be gracious to me, God, according to Your faithfulness;
According to the greatness of Your compassion, wipe out my wrongdoings.
Wash me thoroughly from my guilt
And cleanse me from my sin. - Create in me a clean heart, God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me. - The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
A broken and a contrite heart, God, You will not despise. - Behold, God is my helper;
The Lord is the sustainer of my soul. - Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you;
He will never allow the righteous to be shaken. - When I am afraid,
I will put my trust in You. - In God, whose word I praise,
In God I have put my trust;
I shall not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me? - Be exalted above the heavens, God;
May Your glory be above all the earth. - For Your goodness is great to the heavens
And Your truth to the clouds. - But as for me, I will sing of Your strength;
Yes, I will joyfully sing of Your faithfulness in the morning,
For You have been my refuge
And a place of refuge on the day of my distress. - My soul waits in silence for God alone;
From Him comes my salvation. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I will not be greatly shaken. - My soul, wait in silence for God alone,
For my hope is from Him. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
My refuge; I will not be shaken. - My salvation and my glory rest on God;
The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God. - And faithfulness is Yours, Lord,
For You reward a person according to his work. - God, You are my God; I shall be watching for You;
My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,
In a dry and exhausted land where there is no water.
