Psalm 42:1-3
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
BOOK II
Longing for God and His Help in Distress
To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah.
42 [a]As a hart longs
for flowing streams,
so longs my soul
for thee, O God.
2 My soul thirsts for God,
for the living God.
When shall I come and behold
the face of God?
3 My tears have been my food
day and night,
while men say to me continually,
“Where is your God?”
Footnotes
- 42 This and the following psalm were originally one, as can be seen from the refrain repeated three times.
