When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 42 of Psalms. Psalm 42 expresses the spiritual thirst of someone separated from the place of worship and subjected to deep sadness. The image of the deer searching for streams turns the desire for God into a vital necessity. Memories of communal worship intensify the sense of distance. The refrain addressed to the soul introduces a form of inner dialogue: hope remains because God is still salvation even when emotions contradict that hope.

Meine Tränen sind meine Speise Tag und Nacht, weil man täglich zu mir sagt: Wo ist nun dein Gott?
Acordareme de estas cosas, y derramaré sobre mí mi alma: Cuando pasaré en el número, iré con ellos hasta la casa de Dios, Con voz de alegría y de alabanza, haciendo fiesta la multitud.
Recuerdo estas cosas y derramo mi alma dentro de mí: cómo pasaba entre la multitud y la conducía hasta la casa de Dios, con voces de alegría y gratitud, una multitud que celebraba.
Je me rappelle avec effusion de coeur Quand je marchais entouré de la foule, Et que je m'avançais à sa tête vers la maison de Dieu, Au milieu des cris de joie et des actions de grâces D'une multitude en fête.
Io mi verso addosso l’anima mia Quando mi riduco in memoria queste cose; Che io passava in ischiera, E camminava con essa infino alla Casa di Dio, Con voce di canto e di lode, la moltitudine facendo festa.
Quando me lembro disto, dentro de mim derramo a minha alma; pois eu havia ido com a multidão. Fui com eles à casa de Deus, com voz de alegria e louvor, com a multidão que festejava.
我從前與眾人同往, 領他們到上帝的殿裏, 大家用歡呼稱頌的聲音守節; 我追想這些事, 我的心極其悲傷。
