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