1 - A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah. O God, Thou <FI>art<Fi> my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land dry and weary, without waters.

2 - So in the sanctuary I have seen Thee, To behold Thy strength and Thine honour.

3 - Because better <FI>is<Fi> Thy kindness than life, My lips do praise Thee.

4 - So I bless Thee in my life, in Thy name I lift up my hands.

5 - As <FI>with<Fi> milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And <FI>with<Fi> singing lips doth my mouth praise.

6 - If I have remembered Thee on my couch, In the watches--I meditate on Thee.

7 - For Thou hast been a help to me, And in the shadow of Thy wings I sing.

8 - Cleaved hath my soul after Thee, On me hath Thy right hand taken hold.

9 - And they who for desolation seek my soul, Go in to the lower parts of the earth.

10 - They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, A portion for foxes they are.

11 - And the king doth rejoice in God, Boast himself doth every one swearing by Him, But stopped is the mouth of those speaking lies!
