Psalm 42:9-11
New International Reader's Version
Psalm 42:9-11
New International Reader's Version
9 I say to God my Rock,
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I go around in sorrow?
Why am I treated so badly by my enemies?”
10 My body suffers deadly pain
as my enemies make fun of me.
All day long they say to me,
“Where is your God?”
11 My spirit, why are you so sad?
Why are you so upset deep down inside me?
Put your hope in God.
Once again I will have reason to praise him.
He is my Savior and my God.

Psalm 42:9-11
New International Version
9 I say to God my Rock,(A)
“Why have you forgotten(B) me?
Why must I go about mourning,(C)
oppressed(D) by the enemy?”(E)
10 My bones suffer mortal agony(F)
as my foes taunt(G) me,
saying to me all day long,
“Where is your God?”(H)
11 Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.(I)

Psalm 42:9-11
King James Version
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 enemies reproach me; while they say daily 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.
