Psalm 42:4-6
GOD’S WORD Translation

4 I will remember these things as I pour out my soul:
how I used to walk with the crowd
and lead it in a procession to God’s house.
⌞I sang⌟ songs of joy and thanksgiving
while crowds of people celebrated a festival.

5 Why are you discouraged, my soul?
Why are you so restless?
Put your hope in God,
because I will still praise him.
He is my savior and my God.

6 My soul is discouraged.
That is why I will remember you
in the land of Jordan, on the peaks of Hermon, on Mount Mizar.

with shouts of joy(C) and praise(D)
    among the festive throng.(E)

5 Why, my soul, are you downcast?(F)

Put your hope in God,(H)

    therefore I will remember(L) you
