[1] O God, thou art my God; earnestly will I seek thee: My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee, In a dry and weary land, where no water is.
[1] ---
[2] So have I looked upon thee in the sanctuary, To see thy power and thy glory.
[2] ---
[3] Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise thee.
[3] ---
[4] So will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
[4] ---
[5] My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips;
[5] ---
[6] When I remember thee upon my bed, And meditate on thee in the night-watches.
[6] ---
[7] For thou hast been my help, And in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
[7] ---
[8] My soul followeth hard after thee: Thy right hand upholdeth me.
[8] ---
[9] But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
[9] ---
[10] They shall be given over to the power of the sword: They shall be a portion for foxes.
[10] ---
[11] But the king shall rejoice in God: Every one that sweareth by him shall glory; For the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
