Psalm 42:6-9
Why are you downcast O my soul? Why do you groan within me? Have hope in G-d! There will come a time when I will give thanks for the salvation which will come from His radiant presence. My G-d, my soul is downcast in this exile as I remember Your miracles in the land of Jordan where the river Jordan became dry land at the peaks of Mount Hermon where you past over our wrong doings, and at the lowly mountain, Sinai, where you forgave us the sin of the golden calf. Yet in our present exile, deep cries out to deep, one sorrow cries after another, with the cry from the channels through which You send your punishment, which are poured out like water. All Your breakers and waves have swept over me. With the light of day let G-d command His kindness to be revealed. Even in the night of exile, may his presence rest with me. This is my prayer to the G-d of my life.
