1. As the hart pants after the water brooks, so pants my soul after you, O God.
2. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?
3. My tears have been my food day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is your God?
4. When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
5. Why are you cast down, O my soul? and why are you disturbed within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.
6. O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember you from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.
