1. As the deer pants for the water brooks,So pants my soul for 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 to me,“Where is your God?”
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.
5. Why are you cast down, O my soul?And why are you disquieted within me?Hope in God, for I shall yet praise HimFor the help of His countenance.
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.
