시편 42편은 시편 제2권을 여는 고라 자손의 시로, 성전 예배에서 멀어진 시인이 사슴이 시냇물을 찾듯 하나님을 갈망하며 낙심한 자기 영혼에게 하나님을 바라라고 스스로 말하는 탄식시이다.

42Psalms · Good News Translation (1992)

¹As a deer longs for a stream of cool water, so I long for you, O God. Notes

²I thirst for you, the living God. When can I go and worship in your presence?

³Day and night I cry, and tears are my only food; all the time my enemies ask me, “Where is your God?”

⁴My 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.

⁵Why 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.

⁷Here in exile my heart is breaking, and so I turn my thoughts to him. He has sent waves of sorrow over my soul; chaos roars at me like a flood, like waterfalls thundering down to the Jordan from Mount Hermon and Mount Mizar.

⁸May the Lord show his constant love during the day, so that I may have a song at night, a prayer to the God of my life.

⁹To God, my defender, I say, “Why have you forgotten me? Why must I go on suffering from the cruelty of my enemies?”

¹⁰I am crushed by their insults, as they keep on asking me, “Where is your God?”

¹¹Why 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.
