詩篇 42
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
在異域遭難時企望神
42 可拉後裔的訓誨詩,交於伶長。
1 神啊,我的心切慕你,如鹿切慕溪水。
2 我的心渴想神,就是永生神,我幾時得朝見神呢?
3 我晝夜以眼淚當飲食,人不住地對我說:「你的神在哪裡呢?」
4 我從前與眾人同往,用歡呼稱讚的聲音,領他們到神的殿裡,大家守節。我追想這些事,我的心極其悲傷。
5 我的心哪,你為何憂悶?為何在我裡面煩躁?應當仰望神,因他笑臉幫助我,我還要稱讚他。
6 我的神啊,我的心在我裡面憂悶,所以我從約旦地,從黑門嶺,從米薩山,記念你。
7 你的瀑布發聲,深淵就與深淵響應,你的波浪洪濤漫過我身。
8 白晝,耶和華必向我施慈愛;黑夜,我要歌頌、禱告賜我生命的神。
9 我要對神我的磐石說:「你為何忘記我呢?我為何因仇敵的欺壓時常哀痛呢?」
10 我的敵人辱罵我,好像打碎我的骨頭,不住地對我說:「你的神在哪裡呢?」
11 我的心哪,你為何憂悶?為何在我裡面煩躁?應當仰望神,因我還要稱讚他,他是我臉上的光榮[a],是我的神。

Psalm 42
English Standard Version
Book Two
Why Are You Cast Down, O My Soul?
To the choirmaster. A Maskil[a] of (A)the Sons of Korah.
42 (B)As a deer pants for flowing streams,
so pants my soul for you, O God.
2 (C)My soul thirsts for God,
for (D)the living God.
When shall I come and (E)appear before God?[b]
3 (F)My tears have been my food
day and night,
(G)while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
4 These things I remember,
as I (H)pour out my soul:
(I)how I would go (J)with the throng
and lead them in procession to the house of God
with glad shouts and songs of praise,
(K)a multitude keeping festival.
5 (L)Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you (M)in turmoil within me?
(N)Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation[c] 6 and my God.
My soul is cast down within me;
therefore I (O)remember you
(P)from the land of Jordan and of (Q)Hermon,
from Mount Mizar.
7 Deep calls to deep
at the roar of your waterfalls;
(R)all your breakers and your (S)waves
have gone over me.
8 By day the Lord (T)commands his steadfast love,
and at (U)night his song is with me,
a prayer to the God of my life.
9 I say to God, (V)my rock:
“Why have you forgotten me?
(W)Why do I go mourning
because of the oppression of the enemy?”
10 As with a deadly wound in my bones,
my adversaries taunt me,
(X)while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
11 (Y)Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
