In context

Before · Psalm 42:6–7

6My God, my soul is in despair within me. Therefore I remember you from the land of the Jordan, the heights of Hermon, from the hill Mizar. 7Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls. All your waves and your billows have swept over me.

8The LORD will command his loving kindness in the daytime. In the night his song shall be with me: a prayer to the God of my life.

After · Psalm 42:9–10

9I will ask God, my rock, “Why have you forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?” 10As with a sword in my bones, my adversaries reproach me, while they continually ask me, “Where is your God?”
