|
1 |
O God, You are my God;
Early will I seek You;
My soul thirsts for You;
My flesh longs for You
In a dry and thirsty land
Where there is no water.
|
|
|
2 |
So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and Your glory.
|
|
3 |
Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.
|
|
4 |
Thus I will bless You while I live;
I will lift up my hands in Your name.
|
|
5 |
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness,
And my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips.
|
|
6 |
When I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches.
|
|
7 |
Because You have been my help,
Therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice.
|
|
8 |
My soul follows close behind You;
Your right hand upholds me.
|
|
9 |
But those who seek my life, to destroy it,
Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
|
|
10 |
They shall fall by the sword;
They shall be a portion for jackals.
|
|
11 |
But the king shall rejoice in God;
Everyone who swears by Him shall glory;
But the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.
