22:14 My strength drains away like water;
all my bones are dislocated;
my heart is like wax;
it melts away inside me.
Book 2
(Psalms 42-72)
For the music director; a well-written song by the Korahites.
42:1 As a deer longs for streams of water,
so I long for you, O God!
66:12 You allowed men to ride over our heads;
we passed through fire and water,
but you brought us out into a wide open place.
For the music director; according to the tune of “Lilies;” by David.
69:1 Deliver me, O God,
for the water has reached my neck.
69:2 I sink into the deep mire
where there is no solid ground;
I am in deep water,
and the current overpowers me.
69:14 Rescue me from the mud! Don’t let me sink!
Deliver me from those who hate me,
from the deep water!
78:20 Yes, he struck a rock and water flowed out,
streams gushed forth.
But can he also give us food?
Will he provide meat for his people?”
84:6 As they pass through the Baca Valley,
he provides a spring for them.
The rain even covers it with pools of water.
106:9 He shouted at the Red Sea and it dried up;
he led them through the deep water as if it were a desert.
109:18 He made cursing a way of life,
so curses poured into his stomach like water
and seeped into his bones like oil.
