4These things I remember, as I pour out my soul:
how I went with the throng, and led them in procession to the house of God,
with glad shouts and songs of thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.
5Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
for I shall again praise him, my help and my God.
6My soul is cast down within me,
therefore I remember you from the land of Jordan and of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
7Deep calls to deep at the thunder of your cataracts;
all your waves and your billows have gone over me.
8By day Yahweh commands his steadfast love;
and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
9I say to God, my rock: "Why have you forgotten me?
Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?"
10As with a deadly wound in my body, my adversaries taunt me,
while they say to me continually, "Where is your God?"
11Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
for I shall again praise him, my help and my God.
