Young's Literal Translation YLT
Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB
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.
1
God, You are my God; I eagerly seek You. I thirst for You; my body faints for You in a land that is dry, desolate, and without water.
2 So in the sanctuary I have seen Thee, To behold Thy strength and Thine honour.
2
So I gaze on You in the sanctuary to see Your strength and Your glory.
3 Because better [is] Thy kindness than life, My lips do praise Thee.
3
My lips will glorify You because Your faithful love is better than life.
4 So I bless Thee in my life, in Thy name I lift up my hands.
4
So I will praise You as long as I live; at Your name, I will lift up my hands.
5 As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And [with] singing lips doth my mouth praise.
5
You satisfy me as with rich food; my mouth will praise You with joyful lips.
6 If I have remembered Thee on my couch, In the watches -- I meditate on Thee.
6
When, on my bed, I think of You, I meditate on You during the night watches
7 For Thou hast been a help to me, And in the shadow of Thy wings I sing.
7
because You are my help; I will rejoice in the shadow of Your wings.
8 Cleaved hath my soul after Thee, On me hath Thy right hand taken hold.
8
I follow close to You; Your right hand holds on to me.
9 And they who for desolation seek my soul, Go in to the lower parts of the earth.
9
But those who seek to destroy my life will go into the depths of the earth.
10 They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, A portion for foxes they are.
10
They will be given over to the power of the sword; they will become the jackals' prey.
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!
11
But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by Him will boast, for the mouths of liars will be shut.
