| To the Chief Musician. A Contemplation of the sons of Korah. | |
| 1 | As the deer pants for the water brooks, So pants my soul for You, O God. |
|
Κρῖνόνμε,οθεός,καὶδίκασοντὴνδίκηνμουεξέθνουςουχοσίου,απὸανθρώπουαδίκουκαὶδολίουρῦσαίμε.
|
|
| 2 | My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? |
|
ότισὺεῖ,οθεός,κραταίωμάμου·ίνατίαπώσωμε;καὶίνατίσκυθρωπάζωνπορεύομαιεντῶεκθλίβειντὸνεχθρόνμου;
|
|
| 3 | My tears have been my food day and night, While they continually say to me, “Where is your God?” |
|
εξαπόστειλοντὸφῶςσουκαὶτὴναλήθειάνσου·αυτάμεωδήγησανκαὶήγαγόνμεειςόροςάγιόνσουκαὶειςτὰσκηνώματάσου.
|
|
| 4 | When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me. For I used to go with the multitude; I went with them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast. |
|
καὶεισελεύσομαιπρὸςτὸθυσιαστήριοντοῦθεοῦπρὸςτὸνθεὸντὸνευφραίνοντατὴννεότητάμου·εξομολογήσομαίσοιενκιθάρα,οθεὸςοθεόςμου.
|
|
| 5 | Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him For the help of His countenance. |
|
ίνατίπερίλυποςεῖ,ψυχή,καὶίνατίσυνταράσσειςμε;έλπισονεπὶτὸνθεόν,ότιεξομολογήσομαιαυτῶ·σωτήριοντοῦπροσώπουμουοθεόςμου.
|
|
| 6 | O my God, my soul is cast down within me; Therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan, And from the heights of Hermon, From the Hill Mizar. |
|
|
|
| 7 | Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls; All Your waves and billows have gone over me. |
|
|
|
| 8 | The LORD will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, And in the night His song shall be with me— A prayer to the God of my life. |
|
|
|
| 9 | I will say to God my Rock, “Why have You forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?” |
|
|
|
| 10 | As with a breaking of my bones, My enemies reproach me, While they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?” |
|
|
|
| 11 | Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God. |
