1O God, thou art my God, early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee: my flesh longeth greatly after thee in a barren and dry land without water:
2Thus I behold thee as in the Sanctuary, when I behold thy power and thy glory.
3For thy loving-kindness is better than life: therefore my lips shall praise thee.
4Thus will I magnify thee all my life, and lift up mine hands in thy Name.
5My soul shall be satisfied, as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips,
6When I remember thee on my bed, and when I think upon thee in the night watches.
7Because thou hast been mine helper, therefore under the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8My soul cleaveth unto thee: for thy right hand upholdeth me.
9Therefore they that seek my soul to destroy it, they shall go into the lowest parts of the earth.
10They shall cast him down with the edge of the sword, and they shall be a portion for foxes.
11But the king shall rejoice in God, and all that swear by him shall rejoice in him: for the mouth of them that speak lies, shall be stopped.
