Holman Christian Standard Bible

Psalms 42:3-9 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

3. My tears have been my food day and night,while all day long people say to me,“Where is your God? ”

4. I remember this as I pour out my heart: how I walked with many,leading the festive procession to the house of God,with joyful and thankful shouts.

5. Why am I so depressed?Why this turmoil within me?Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him,my Savior and my God.

6. I am deeply depressed;therefore I remember You from the land of Jordanand the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.

7. Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls;all Your breakers and Your billows have swept over me.

8. The Lord will send His faithful love by day; His song will be with me in the night —a prayer to the God of my life.

9. I will say to God, my rock, “Why have You forgotten me?Why must I go about in sorrowbecause of the enemy’s oppression? ”
