Psalms for the Down Cast
Psalm 42-43
Skip Heitzig
| Psalm 42 (NKJV™) | |
| 1 | To the Chief Musician. A Contmeplation of the sons of Korah. 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 Him For 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. |
| 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. |
| Psalm 43 (NKJV™) | |
| 1 | Vindicate me, O God, And plead my cause against an ungodly nation; Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man! |
| 2 | For You are the God of my strength; Why do You cast me off? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? |
| 3 | Oh, send out Your light and Your truth! Let them lead me; Let them bring me to Your holy hill And to Your tabernacle. |
| 4 | Then I will go to the altar of God, To God my exceeding joy; And on the harp I will praise You, O God, my God. |
| 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, The help of my countenance and my God. |
