  • 1. &lt;A Psalm. Of David. When he was in the waste land of Judah.&gt;<br>
    O God, you are my God; early will I make my search for you: my soul is dry for need of you, my flesh is wasted with desire for you, as a dry and burning land where no water is;
  • 2. To see your power and your glory, as I have seen you in the holy place.
  • 3. Because your mercy is better than life, my lips will give you praise.
  • 4. So will I go on blessing you all my life, lifting up my hands in your name.
  • 5. My soul will be comforted, as with good food; and my mouth will give you praise with songs of joy;
  • 6. When the memory of you comes to me on my bed, and when I give thought to you in the night-time.
  • 7. Because you have been my help, I will have joy in the shade of your wings.
  • 8. My soul keeps ever near you: your right hand is my support.
  • 9. But those whose desire is my soul's destruction will go down to the lower parts of the earth.
  • 10. They will be cut off by the sword; they will be food for foxes.
  • 11. But the king will have joy in God; everyone who takes an oath by him will have cause for pride; but the false mouth will be stopped.
