[:en]David described his feelings during his hour of need:
“As the deer pants for streams of water so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God, When can I go and meet with God? (vs. 1-2)
He questioned himself : Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? (vs. 5a and 11a)
His answer: Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. (vs. 5b and 11b)[:]
