Psalms 42:2

Context

42:2 I thirst 1  for God,

for the living God.

I say, 2  “When will I be able to go and appear in God’s presence?” 3 

1 tn Or “my soul thirsts.”

2 tn The words “I say” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons and for clarification.

3 tn Heb “When will I go and appear [to] the face of God?” Some emend the Niphal verbal form אֵרָאֶה (’eraeh, “I will appear”) to a Qal אֶרְאֶה (’ereh, “I will see”; see Gen 33:10), but the Niphal can be retained if one understands ellipsis of אֶת (’et) before “face” (see Exod 34:24; Deut 31:11).
