1 A Psalm * h4210 of David * h1732, when he was in the wilderness * h4057 of Judah * h3063. O God * h430, thou art my God * h410; early will I seek * h7836 h8762 thee: my soul * h5315 thirsteth * h6770 h8804 for thee, my flesh * h1320 longeth * h3642 h8804 for thee in a dry * h6723 and thirsty * h5889 land * h776, where no * h1097 water * h4325 is; thirsty: Heb. weary where...: without water
2 To see * h7200 h8800 thy power * h5797 and thy glory * h3519, so as I have seen * h2372 h8804 thee in the sanctuary * h6944.
3 Because thy lovingkindness * h2617 is better * h2896 than life * h2416, my lips * h8193 shall praise * h7623 h8762 thee.
4 Thus will I bless * h1288 h8762 thee while I live * h2416: I will lift up * h5375 h8799 my hands * h3709 in thy name * h8034.
5 My soul * h5315 shall be satisfied * h7646 h8799 as with marrow * h2459 and fatness * h1880; and my mouth * h6310 shall praise * h1984 h8762 thee with joyful * h7445 lips * h8193: marrow: Heb. fatness
6 When I remember * h2142 h8804 thee upon my bed * h3326, and meditate * h1897 h8799 on thee in the night watches * h821.
7 Because thou hast been my help * h5833, therefore in the shadow * h6738 of thy wings * h3671 will I rejoice * h7442 h8762.
8 My soul * h5315 followeth hard * h1692 h8804 after * h310 thee: thy right hand * h3225 upholdeth * h8551 h8804 me.
9 But those that seek * h1245 h8762 my soul * h5315, to destroy * h7722 it , shall go * h935 h8799 into the lower parts * h8482 of the earth * h776.
10 They shall fall * h5064 h8686 by the sword * h3027 * h2719: they shall be a portion * h4521 for foxes * h7776. They shall fall...: Heb. They shall make him run out like water by the hands of
11 But the king * h4428 shall rejoice * h8055 h8799 in God * h430; every one that sweareth * h7650 h8737 by him shall glory * h1984 h8691: but the mouth * h6310 of them that speak * h1696 h8802 lies * h8267 shall be stopped * h5534 h8735.
