3. Day and night my tearsare my only food,as everyone keeps asking,“Where is your God?”
4. Sorrow floods my heart,when I rememberleading the worshippersto your house.I can still hear them shouttheir joyful praises.
5. Why am I discouraged?Why am I restless?I trust you!And I will praise you againbecause you help me,
6. and you are my God.I am deeply discouragedas I think about youfrom where the Jordan beginsat Mount Hermonand from Mount Mizar.
7. Your vicious waveshave swept over melike an angry oceanor a roaring waterfall.
8. Every day, you are kind,and at nightyou give me a songas my prayer to you,the living Lord God.
9. You are my mighty rock.Why have you forgotten me?Why must enemies ill-treat meand make me sad?
