1
O God, aYou are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul bthirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a cdry and weary land where there is no water.
2
Thus I have aseen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.
3
Because Your alovingkindness is better than life, My lips will praise You.
4
So I will bless You aas long as I live; I will blift up my hands in Your name.
5
My soul is asatisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers bpraises with joyful lips.
6
When I remember You aon my bed, I meditate on You in the bnight watches,
7
For aYou have been my help, And in the bshadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
8
My soul aclings to You; Your bright hand upholds me.
9
But those who aseek my life to destroy it, Will go into the bdepths of the earth.
10
They will be adelivered over to the power of the sword; They will be a bprey for foxes.
11
But the aking will rejoice in God; Everyone who bswears by Him will glory, For the cmouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.
