4. My heart breaks when I remember the past,when I went with the crowds to the house of Godand led them as they walked along,a happy crowd, singing and shouting praise to God.
5. Why am I so sad?Why am I so troubled?I will put my hope in God,and once again I will praise him,my saviour and my God.
6-7. Here in exile my heart is breaking,and so I turn my thoughts to him.He has sent waves of sorrow over my soul;chaos roars at me like a flood,like waterfalls thundering down to the Jordanfrom Mount Hermon and Mount Mizar.
