"As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants after you, God."
— Psalms 42:1, World English Bible
“As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.”
“ As the hart panteth after the water brooks, So panteth my soul after thee, O God. ”
“Book 2(Psalms 42-72) For the music director; a well-written song by the Korahites. As a deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God!”
“A psalm for David. Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.”
“ Like the desire of the roe for the water-streams, so is my soul's desire for you, O God.”
“As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.”
As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants after you, God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?
My tears have been my food day and night, while they continually ask me, "Where is your God?"
These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.
