1 O God, thou art my God; earnestly will I seek thee: My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee, In a dry and weary land, where no water is.
2To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
2So have I looked upon thee in the sanctuary, To see thy power and thy glory.
3Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

5My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

8My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
8My soul followeth hard after thee: Thy right hand upholdeth me.
9But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
9But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
