Abierunt ergo Eliphaz Themanites, et Baldad Suhites, et Sophar Naamathites, et fecerunt sicut locutus fuerat Dominus ad eos, et suscepit Dominus faciem Job.
span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.42.1" class="versetxt"> Psalmus David. [Judica me, Deus, et discerne causam meam de gente non sancta:
ab homine iniquo et doloso erue me.
Quia tu es, Deus, fortitudo mea: quare me repulisti?
et quare tristis incedo, dum affligit me inimicus?
Emitte lucem tuam et veritatem tuam:
ipsa me deduxerunt, et adduxerunt
in montem sanctum tuum, et in tabernacula tua.
Et introibo ad altare Dei,
ad Deum qui l�tificat juventutem meam.
Confitebor tibi in cithara, Deus, Deus meus.
Quare tristis es, anima mea?
et quare conturbas me?
Spera in Deo, quoniam adhuc confitebor illi,
salutare vultus mei, et Deus meus.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible
I will say unto God my rock,.... A name frequently given to the eternal God, Father, Son, and Spirit, Deuteronomy 32:4;
Deuteronomy 32:4- :;
why hast thou forgotten me? Deuteronomy 32:4- :;
why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? meaning perhaps Saul; though it may be applied to any spiritual enemy, sin, Satan, and the world; who are very oppressive and afflicting, and occasion continual mourning to the children of God.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
I will say unto God my rock - I will appeal to God as my defense, my helper, my Saviour. On the word rock, as applied to God, see the notes at Psalms 18:2.
Why hast thou forgotten me? - See the notes at Psalms 22:1. He had seemed to forget and forsake him, for He did not come to interpose and save him. This is a part of the prayer which he says Psalms 42:8 that he would use.
Why go I mourning? - On the meaning of the word used here - קדר qodēr - see Psalms 35:14, note; Psalms 38:6, note. The idea is that of being bowed down, made sad, deeply afflicted, as one forsaken.
Because of the oppression of the enemy - In the oppression of the enemy; that is, during its continuance, or on account of it. The word here rendered “oppression” means distress, affliction, straits, Job 36:15; 1 Kings 22:27; Isaiah 30:20. The “enemy” here referred to may have been Absalom, who had driven him from his throne and kingdom.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 42:9. I will say unto God my rock — God, my Fortress and Support.
Why hast thou forgotten meat — This and the following verse is badly pointed in our Bibles: "Why go I mourning as with a sword in my bones because of the oppression of the enemy? Mine enemies reproach me daily, while they say unto me, Where is thy God?" See on Psalms 42:3. Their reproaches are to my soul as cutting and severe as a sword thrust into my body, and separating between my bones; because these reproaches are intended to fall on thee, my God, as if thou hadst not power to save us from the hands of our oppressors.
