BOOK II
(Psalms 42–72)
For the choir director. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. As a deer longs for streams of water,

the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer,
the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope,
and the mountain sheep.

He makes my feet like the feet of a deer
and sets me securely on the heights.

Some Gadites defected to David at his stronghold in the desert. They were fighting men, trained for battle, expert with shield and spear. Their faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as gazelles on the mountains.

A loving doe, a graceful fawn—
let her breasts always satisfy you;
be lost in her love forever.

Escape like a gazelle from a hunter,
like a bird from a fowler’s trap.

Then the lame will leap like a deer,
and the tongue of the mute will sing for joy,
for water will gush in the wilderness,
and streams in the desert;

Even the doe in the field
gives birth and abandons her fawn
since there is no grass.


Take words of repentance with you
and return to the Lord.
Say to Him: “Forgive all our sin
and accept what is good,
so that we may repay You
with praise from our lips.

Then the lame will leap like a deer,
and the tongue of the mute will sing for joy,
for water will gush in the wilderness,
and streams in the desert;


He will revive us after two days,
and on the third day He will raise us up
so we can live in His presence.

on the mountains of spices.

and made water flow down like rivers.
