KJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 H5329 To the chief Musician [H8764] H4905 , Maschil [H8688] H1121 , for the sons H7141 of Korah H354 . As the hart H6165 panteth [H8799] H4325 after the water H650 brooks H6165 , so panteth [H8799] H5315 my soul H430 after thee, O God.

2 H5315 My soul H6770 thirsteth [H8804] H430 for God H2416 , for the living H410 God H935 : when shall I come [H8799] H7200 and appear [H8735] H6440 before H430 God?

3 H1832 My tears H3899 have been my meat H3119 day H3915 and night H3117 , while they continually H559 say [H8800] H430 unto me, Where is thy God?

4 H2142 When I remember [H8799] H8210 these things, I pour out [H8799] H5315 my soul H5674 in me: for I had gone [H8799] H5519 with the multitude H1718 , I went [H8691] H1004 with them to the house H430 of God H6963 , with the voice H7440 of joy H8426 and praise H1995 , with a multitude H2287 that kept holyday [H8802] .

5 H7817 Why art thou cast down [H8709] H5315 , O my soul H1993 ? and why art thou disquieted [H8799] H3176 in me? hope [H8685] H430 thou in God H3034 : for I shall yet praise [H8686] H3444 him for the help H6440 of his countenance.

6 H430 O my God H5315 , my soul H7817 is cast down [H8709] H2142 within me: therefore will I remember [H8799] H776 thee from the land H3383 of Jordan H2769 , and of the Hermonites H2022 , from the hill H4706 Mizar.

7 H8415 Deep H7121 calleth [H8802] H8415 unto deep H6963 at the noise H6794 of thy waterspouts H4867 : all thy waves H1530 and thy billows H5674 are gone [H8804] over me.

8 H3068 Yet the LORD H6680 will command [H8762] H2617 his lovingkindness H3119 in the daytime H3915 , and in the night H7892 his song H8605 shall be with me, and my prayer H410 unto the God H2416 of my life.

9 H559 I will say [H8799] H410 unto God H5553 my rock H7911 , Why hast thou forgotten [H8804] H3212 me? why go [H8799] H6937 I mourning [H8802] H3906 because of the oppression H341 of the enemy [H8802] ?

10 H7524 As with a sword H6106 in my bones H6887 , mine enemies [H8802] H2778 reproach [H8765] H559 me; while they say [H8800] H3117 daily H430 unto me, Where is thy God?

11 H7817 Why art thou cast down [H8709] H5315 , O my soul H1993 ? and why art thou disquieted [H8799] H3176 within me? hope [H8685] H430 thou in God H3034 : for I shall yet praise [H8686] H3444 him, who is the health H6440 of my countenance H430 , and my God.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ For the Chief Musician; Maschil of the sons of Korah. As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. ² My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? ³ My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? ⁴ These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I went with the throng, and led them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping holyday. ⁵ Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and [why] art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him [for] the health of his countenance. ⁶ O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore do I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and the Hermons, from the hill Mizar. ⁷ Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. ⁸ [Yet] the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the day-time, and in the night his song shall be with me, [even] a prayer unto the God of my life. ⁹ I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? ¹⁰ As with a sword in my bones, mine adversaries reproach me; while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? ¹¹ Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, [who is] the health of my countenance, and my God.
