(A)Why are you cast down, O my soul,
    and why are you (B)in turmoil within me?
(C)Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
    my salvation[a] and my God.

My soul is cast down within me;
    therefore I (D)remember you
(E)from the land of Jordan and of (F)Hermon,
    from Mount Mizar.
Deep calls to deep
    at the roar of your waterfalls;
(G)all your breakers and your (H)waves
    have gone over me.
By day the Lord (I)commands his steadfast love,
    and at (J)night his song is with me,
    a prayer to the God of my life.
