Psalms 42:4

When I think about what has been [and what my situation is now],
it is as if my whole being is breaking (melting, my emotions overflowing with sorrow).
I walked with the crowd (Hebr. sach), led the procession to God's house (dwelling place),
with shouts of joy and thanksgiving together with those celebrating the feast.
[This verse is somewhat difficult to translate. The Hebrew noun sach is only used here. It can mean a large number, referring to a large crowd, which fits well here. It also means something that is covered, in which case perhaps covered wagons, see Num. 7:3. The word has the same root as sukkot and can also refer to the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). In that case, the meaning becomes "to enter one's sukkah." An example of David rejoicing in dance is when the ark is brought into Jerusalem, see 2 Sam. 6:14–15.]
