 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 For the choir director. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. As the deer pants for the water brooks, So my soul pants for You, O God. | 1 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. | 1 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, So panteth my soul after thee, O God. | 1 Unto the end, understanding for the sons of Core. As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God. | 1 To the Overseer. -- An Instruction. By sons of Korah. As a hart doth pant for streams of water, So my soul panteth toward Thee, O God. | 2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God; When shall I come and appear before God? | 2 My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God? | 2 My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: When shall I come and appear before God? | 2 My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God? | 2 My soul thirsted for God, for the living God, When do I enter and see the face of God? | 3 My tears have been my food day and night, While they say to me all day long, "Where is your God?" | 3 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? | 3 My tears have been my food day and night, While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? | 3 My tears have been any bread day and night, whilst it is said to me daily : Where is thy God? | 3 My tear hath been to me bread day and night, In their saying unto me all the day, 'Where is thy God?' | 4 These things I remember and I pour out my soul within me. For I used to go along with the throng and lead them in procession to the house of God, With the voice of joy and thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival. | 4 When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday. | 4 These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, How I went with the throng, and led them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping holyday. | 4 These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me : for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God : With the voice of joy and praise; the noise of one feasting. | 4 These I remember, and pour out my soul in me, For I pass over into the booth, I go softly with them unto the house of God, With the voice of singing and confession, The multitude keeping feast! | 5 Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him For the help of His presence. | 5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. | 5 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 For the help of his countenance. | 5 Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him : the salvation of my countenance, | 5 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? Yea, art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him: The salvation of my countenance -- My God! | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 O my God, my soul is in despair within me; Therefore I remember You from the land of the Jordan And the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar. | 6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar. | 6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: Therefore do I remember thee from the land of the Jordan, And the Hermons, from the hill Mizar. | 6 and my God. My soul is troubled within myself : therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermoniim, from the little hill. | 6 In me doth my soul bow itself, Therefore I remember Thee from the land of Jordan, And of the Hermons, from the hill Mizar. | 7 Deep calls to deep at the sound of Your waterfalls; All Your breakers and Your waves have rolled over me. | 7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. | 7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterfalls: All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. | 7 Deep calleth on deep, at the noise of thy flood-gates. All thy heights and thy billows have passed over me. | 7 Deep unto deep is calling At the noise of Thy water-spouts, All Thy breakers and Thy billows passed over me. | 8 The LORD will command His lovingkindness in the daytime; And His song will be with me in the night, A prayer to the God of my life. | 8 Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. | 8 Yet Jehovah will command his lovingkindness in the day-time; And in the night his song shall be with me, Even a prayer unto the God of my life. | 8 In the daytime the Lord hath commanded his mercy; and a canticle to him in the night. With me is prayer to the God of my life. | 8 By day Jehovah commandeth His kindness, And by night a song is with me, A prayer to the God of my life. | 9 I will say to God my rock, "Why have You forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?" | 9 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? | 9 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? | 9 I will say to God : Thou art my support. Why hast thou forgotten me? and why go I mourning, whilst my enemy afflicteth me? | 9 I say to God my rock, 'Why hast Thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning in the oppression of an enemy? | 10 As a shattering of my bones, my adversaries revile me, While they say to me all day long, "Where is your God?" | 10 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? | 10 As with a sword in my bones, mine adversaries reproach me, While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God? | 10 Whilst my bones are broken, my enemies who trouble me have reproached me; Whilst they say to me day be day : Where is thy God? | 10 With a sword in my bones Have mine adversaries reproached me, In their saying unto me all the day, 'Where is thy God?' | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my 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. | 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 help of my countenance, and my God. | 11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me? Hope thou in God, for I will still give praise to him : the salvation of my countenance, and my God. | 11 What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The salvation of my countenance, and my God! |
