SPIRITUAL HUNGER

Psalm 42:1-2 (NIV)


As the deer pants for streams of water,
so my soul pants for you, my God.
2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
When can I go and meet with God?

Salmo 42:1-2 (ASND)


Tulad ng usang sa tubig ng ilog ay nasasabik,
O Dios, ako sa inyoʼy nananabik.
2 Akoʼy nauuhaw sa inyo, Dios na buhay.
Kailan pa kaya ako makakatayo sa presensya nʼyo?
