A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. |
[Title] | |
1 | O God, thou
art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for
thee, my
flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
|
my God thirsteth for thee |
2 | To see thy power and
thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
|
|
3 | Because thy
lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
|
|
4 | Thus will I bless
thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
|
|
5 | My soul shall be
satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise
thee with joyful lips:
|
|
6 | When I remember thee
upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
|
the night watches |
7 | Because thou hast
been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
|
|
8 | My soul followeth
hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
|
|
9 | But those that
seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of
the
earth.
|
lower parts of the earth |
10 | They shall fall by
the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
|
|
11 | But the king shall
rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the
mouth
of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
