1 A PSALM OF DAVID, IN HIS BEING IN THE WILDERNESS OF JUDAH. O God, You [are] my God, earnestly I seek You, || My soul has thirsted for You, || My flesh has longed for You, || In a dry and weary land, without waters. 2 So I have seen You in the sanctuary, || To behold Your strength and Your glory. 3 Because better [is] Your kindness than life, || My lips praise You. 4 So I bless You in my life, || I lift up my hands in Your Name. 5 As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, || And [with] singing lips my mouth praises. 6 If I have remembered You on my bed, || I meditate on You in the watches. 7 For You have been a help to me, || And I sing in the shadow of Your wings. 8 My soul has cleaved after You, || Your right hand has taken hold on me. 9 And they who seek my soul for desolation, || Go into the lower parts of the earth. 10 They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, || They are a portion for foxes. 11 And the king rejoices in God, || Everyone swearing by Him boasts, || But the mouth of those speaking lies is stopped!
