Psalm 42:2-4

New International Reader's Version

² I am thirsty for God. I am thirsty for the living God.
    When can I go and meet with him?
³ My tears have been my food
    day and night.
All day long people say to me,
    “Where is your God?”
⁴ When I remember what has happened,
    I tell God all my troubles.
I remember how I used to walk to the house of God.
    The Mighty One guarded my steps.
We shouted with joy and praised God
    as we went along with the joyful crowd.
