1
A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah. O God, Thou [art] my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land dry and weary, without waters.
2 So I have seen you in the sanctuary, Watching your power and your glory.
2
So in the sanctuary I have seen Thee, To behold Thy strength and Thine honour.
3 Because your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise you.
3
Because better [is] Thy kindness than life, My lips do praise Thee.
4 So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name.
4
So I bless Thee in my life, in Thy name I lift up my hands.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,
5
As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And [with] singing lips doth my mouth praise.
6 When I remember you on my bed, And think about you in the night watches.
6
If I have remembered Thee on my couch, In the watches -- I meditate on Thee.
7 For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.
7
For Thou hast been a help to me, And in the shadow of Thy wings I sing.
8 My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.
8
Cleaved hath my soul after Thee, On me hath Thy right hand taken hold.
9 But those who seek my soul, to destroy it, Shall go into the lower parts of the eretz.
9
And they who for desolation seek my soul, Go in to the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall be given over to the power of the sword. They shall be jackal food.

They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, A portion for foxes they are.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him will praise him, For the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.
11
And the king doth rejoice in God, Boast himself doth every one swearing by Him, But stopped is the mouth of those speaking lies!
