#Psalmtweet #Psalter 42:10

 Psalm 42 begins book 2 of the psalter. The boundaries of the books are defined by the doxology that occurs at the end of each book. Psalm 42 also begins a group of psalms that use the name Elohim more often than Yahweh. The psalms from 42 to 83 are sometimes referred to as the Elohist Psalter.

Abandoned?

אוֹמְרָ֤ה ׀ לְאֵ֥ל סַלְעִי֮ לָמָ֪ה שְׁכַ֫חְתָּ֥נִי
לָֽמָּה־קֹדֵ֥ר אֵלֵ֗ךְ בְּלַ֣חַץ אוֹיֵֽב
10 I will say to the One, my cliff, Why have you forgotten me?
Why mourning do I walk around in the grip of an enemy?
