Psalm 42:3 · American Standard Version

Psalm 42:3 in context

  1. 1As the deer pants for the water brooks,
    so my soul pants after you, God.
  2. 2My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
    When shall I come and appear before God?
  3. 3My tears have been my food day and night,
    while they continually ask me, “Where is your God?”
  4. 4These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me,
    how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to God’s house,
    with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.
  5. 5Why are you in despair, my soul?
    Why are you disturbed within me?
    Hope in God!
    For I shall still praise him for the saving help of his presence.
