Psalm 42:7-9
Easy-to-Read Version
7 I hear the roar of the water coming from deep within the earth.
It shouts to the water below as it tumbles down the waterfall.
God, your waves come one after another,
crashing all around and over me.[a]
8 By day the Lord shows his faithful love,
and at night I have a song for him—a prayer for the God of my life.[b]
9 I say to God, my Rock,
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I suffer this sadness that my enemies have brought me?”
