A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God,{H430} thou art my God;{H410} earnestly will I seek{H7836} thee: My soul{H5315} thirsteth{H6770} for thee, my flesh{H1320} longeth{H3642} for thee, In a dry{H6723} and weary{H5889} land,{H776} where no{H1097} water{H4325} is.

So have I looked{H2372} upon thee in the sanctuary,{H6944} To see{H7200} thy power{H5797} and thy glory.{H3519}

Because thy lovingkindness{H2617} is better{H2896} than life,{H2416} My lips{H8193} shall praise{H7623} thee.

So will I bless{H1288} thee while I live:{H2416} I will lift up{H5375} my hands{H3709} in thy name.{H8034}

My soul{H5315} shall be satisfied{H7646} as with marrow{H2459} and fatness;{H1880} And my mouth{H6310} shall praise{H1984} thee with joyful{H7445} lips;{H8193}

When I remember{H2142} thee upon my bed,{H3326} [And] meditate{H1897} on thee in the night-watches.{H821}

For thou hast been my help,{H5833} And in the shadow{H6738} of thy wings{H3671} will I rejoice.{H7442}

My soul{H5315} followeth hard{H1692} after{H310} thee: Thy right hand{H3225} upholdeth{H8551} me.

But those that seek{H1245} my soul,{H5315} to destroy{H7722} it, Shall go{H935} into the lower parts{H8482} of the earth.{H776}

They shall be given over{H5064} to the power of the sword:{H3027} They shall be a portion{H4521} for foxes.{H7776}

But the king{H4428} shall rejoice{H8055} in God:{H430} Every one that sweareth{H7650} by him shall glory;{H1984} For the mouth{H6310} of them that speak{H1696} lies{H8267} shall be stopped.{H5534}
