As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So my soul pants for You, O God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God;
•••
By day, Yahweh will command His lovingkindness;
And by night, His song will be with me,
A prayer to the God of my life.
•••
Why are you in despair, O my soul?
And why are you disturbed within me?
Wait for God, for I shall still praise Him,
The salvation of my presence and my God.
