Psalm 42:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷You have sent wave upon wave of trouble over me.
It roars down on me like a waterfall.
All your waves and breakers have rolled over me.

⁸During the day the Lord sends his love to me.
During the night I sing about him.
I say a prayer to the God who gives me life.

⁹I say to God my Rock,
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I go around in sorrow?
Why am I treated so badly by my enemies?”

Psalm 42:7-9

at night^(D) his song^(E) is with me—
a prayer to the God of my life.^(F)

Why must I go about mourning,^(I)
oppressed^(J) by the enemy?”^(K)
