OriginalTranslation

Salme 42/43  - Midi

Som hjorten skriger efter rindende vand,
skriger min sjæl efter dig, min Gud.
Tårer er blevet mit brød dag og nat.
Dagen lang spørger de: Hvor, ja, hvor er din Gud?

Hvorfor er du fortvivlet, min sjæl,
hvorfor skælver du i mig?
Vent på Gud!
For jeg skal takke ham på ny,
min frelser og min Gud.

Brusende strømme råber fra dyb til dyb.
Alle dine bølger skyller hen over mig.
Gud, min klippe, hvorfor har du glemt mig?
Hvorfor skal jeg vandre i sorg, af fjenden trængt?

Hvorfor er du fortvivlet...

Send dit lys og din sandhed, de skal lede mig,
til dit hellige bjerg og din bolig.
Jeg kan komme til Gud, til min glæde og fryd,
takke dig med citerspil, Gud, min Gud.

Hvorfor er du fortvivlet...

Sl 42-43/JE

Psalm 42/43

As the hart panteth after the water brooks,
so panteth my soul after thee, O God.
My tears have been my meat day and night,
while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

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, and my God.

Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts:
all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me?
why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

Why art thou cast down...

O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me;
let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
Then will I go unto God my exceeding joy:
yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

Why art thou cast down...
