12 And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face forever.
13 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
Psalms 42 Intro: David's zeal to serve God -- His trust in God. (To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons of Korah.)
1 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee; O God.
2 My soul thirsteth for to see God, for to see the living God; when shall I come and appear before thee, O God?
3 My tears have been poured out unto thee day and night, while mine enemies continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
4 When I remember these mine enemies, I pour out my soul unto thee; for I had gone with the multitude; I also went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with the multitude that kept holyday.
5 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.
6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me; therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.
7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts; all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
8 Yet the Lord will command his loving-kindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me and my prayer unto the God of my life.
