[1] O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water.
[2] Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.
[3] Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips will praise You.
[4] So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.
[5] My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers praises with joyful lips.
[6] When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches,
[7] For You have been my help, And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
[8] My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.
[9] But those who seek my life to destroy it, Will go into the depths of the earth.
[10] They will be delivered over to the power of the sword; They will be a prey for foxes.
[11] But the king will rejoice in God; Everyone who swears by Him will glory, For the mouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.
