Psalms 42-43 -probably originally one psalm- are the diary of a man who is on a desperate quest. He is on the hunt - for God. The writer is a good man who is in a bad place. He begins by saying he's dry and unsatisfied. Three times he says his soul is disturbed within him, and four times he says it's downcast. Twice he says he goes around mourning.
