1A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God; I earnestly seek You; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You, as in a dry and weary land without water.
2so as I have seen you in the sanctuary, seeing Your power and Your glory.
3For Your loving-kindness is better than life; my lips give praise to You.
4So I will bless You while I live; I will lift up my palms in Your name.
5My soul shall be satisfied, as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips,
6when I remember You upon my bed. I will meditate on You in the night watches.
7For You have been a help to me, and I will rejoice under the shadow of Your wings.
8My soul has cleaved after You; Your right hand upholds me.
9And those who seek to destroy my life shall go into the depths of the earth.
10They shall pour him out by the sword; they shall be a portion for foxes.
11But the king shall rejoice in God; everyone who swears by Him shall glory, because the mouth of the one speaking a lie will be stopped.
