Chapter 42

Sons of Korah.

First Psalm of Book 2.

1st, As the deer...(Much longer stanzas here.)

2nd, A cry from a soul that is cast down.  This person is depressed because of his enemies, and because those enemies laugh and ask why God does not save him.  The person feels forgotten by God, and that his enemies get away with ridiculing God.  He would see them punished.

3rd, Hope in God, for I will yet praise Him.
