1 For the music director, on “The Doe of the Dawn,” a psalm of David.
2 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Distant from my salvation are the words of my groaning.
3 O my God, I cried out by day, but You did not answer, by night, but there was no rest for me.
4 Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
5 In You our fathers put their trust. They trusted, and You delivered them.
6 They cried to you and were delivered. In You they trusted, and were not disappointed.
