3 My flowing tears have been to me As [bitter] food both night and day, While with reproach continually, [To me] where is thy God, they say?
4 My soul is poured out in me, When this I [sadly] think upon, How I with the glad multitude Unto God's [sacred] house have gone. I went with them to worship God With [joined] voice of joy and praise, Even with the multitude that kept [In peace] God's solemn holy days.

5 Why art thou so cast down, my soul, [And why] so troubled and dismayed? Trust God, for I shall yet praise him, Whose [face and] favour is my aid.
