Psalms 42:9 in Context — Psalms 42

7 Mon âme est abattue au-dedans de moi: Aussi c’est à toi que je pense, depuis le pays du Jourdain, Depuis l’Hermon, depuis la montagne de Mitsear.

8 Un flot appelle un autre flot au bruit de tes ondées; Toutes tes vagues et tous tes flots passent sur moi.

9 Le jour, l’Éternel m’accordait sa grâce; La nuit, je chantais ses louanges, J’adressais une prière au Dieu de ma vie.

10 Je dis à Dieu, mon rocher: Pourquoi m’oublies-tu? Pourquoi dois-je marcher dans la tristesse, Sous l’oppression de l’ennemi?

11 Mes os se brisent quand mes persécuteurs m’outragent, En me disant sans cesse: Où est ton Dieu?
