The Thirsting Soul Satisfied in God.
A Psalm of David, 1 Sam 22:5; 23:14when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
1GodH430, 1You are my GodH410; I shall beH7836 watchingH7836 forH7836 You; My soulH5315 2thirstsH6770 for You, my fleshH1320 yearnsH3642 for You, In a 3dryH6723 and exhaustedH5889 landH776 where there is noH1097 waterH4325.2SoH3651 have I 4seenH2372 You in the sanctuaryH6944, To seeH7200 Your powerH5797 and gloryH3519.3BecauseH3588 Your 56favorH2617 is betterH2896 thanH4480 lifeH2425, My lipsH8193 will praiseH7623 You.4SoH3651 I will blessH1288 You 7as long as I liveH2425; I will 8liftH5375 upH5375 my handsH3709 in Your nameH8034.5My soulH5315 isH7646 9satisfiedH7646 as with fatH2459 and fatnessH1880, And my mouthH6310 offersH1984 10praisesH1984 with joyfulH7445 lipsH8193.
6WhenH518 I rememberH2142 You 11on my bedH3326, I meditateH1897 on You in the 12night watchesH821,7For 13You have beenH1961 my helpH5833, And in the 14shadowH6738 of Your wingsH3671 I singH7442 forH7442 joyH7442.8My soulH5315 15clingsH1692 16to You; Your 17rightH3225 handH3225 takesH8551 holdH8551 of me.
9But thoseH1992 who 18seekH1245 my 19lifeH5315 to destroyH7724 it, Will goH935 into the 2021depthsH8482 of the earthH776.1022They will be 2324turnedH5064 overH5064 to the powerH3027 of the swordH2719; They will be a 2526preyH4521 for foxesH7776.11But the 27kingH4428 will rejoiceH8055 in GodH430; EveryoneH3605 who 28swearsH7650 by Him will boastH1984, For the 29mouthsH6310 of those who speakH1696 liesH8267 will be stoppedH5534.
