1O God, thou
art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; 2To see thy power and thy glory, so
as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. 3Because thy lovingkindness
is better than life, my lips shall praise thee. 4Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my 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 upon my bed,
and meditate on thee in the
night watches. 7Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. 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. 10They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
