5. My spirit, why are you so sad? Why are you so upset deep down inside me? Put your hope in God. Once again I will have reason to praise him. He is my Savior and
6. my God. My spirit is very sad deep down inside me. So I will remember you here where the Jordan River begins. I will remember you here on the Hermon mountains and on Mount Mizar.
7. You have sent wave upon wave of trouble over me. It roars down on me like a waterfall. All of your waves and breakers have rolled over me.
8. During the day the Lord sends his love to me. During the night I sing about him. I say a prayer to the God who gives me life.
9. I say to God my Rock, "Why have you forgotten me? Why must I go around in sorrow? Why am I beaten down by my enemies?"
10. My body suffers deadly pain as my enemies make fun of me. All day long they say to me, "Where is your God?"
