Deep waters call out to what is deeper still;[a]
    at the roar of your waterfalls
        all your breakers and your waves swirled over me.

By day the Lord will command his gracious love,
    and by night his song is with me—
        a prayer to the God of my life.
I will ask God, my Rock, “Why have you forsaken me?
    Why do I go around mourning under the enemy’s oppression?”
