Psalm 42:3-5
Good News Translation
3 Day and night I cry,
and tears are my only food;
all the time my enemies ask me,
“Where is your God?”
4 My heart breaks when I remember the past,
when I went with the crowds to the house of God
and led them as they walked along,
a happy crowd, singing and shouting praise to God.
5 Why am I so sad?
Why am I so troubled?
I will put my hope in God,
and once again I will praise him,
my savior and my God.
Psalm 42:3-5

3 My tears(A) have been my food
day and night,
while people say to me all day long,
“Where is your God?”(B)
4 These things I remember
as I pour out my soul:(C)
how I used to go to the house of God(D)
under the protection of the Mighty One[a]
with shouts of joy(E) and praise(F)
among the festive throng.(G)
