*A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.*

1. God, you are my God; I seek you earnestly; my soul thirsts for you; my body longs for you in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2. So I have gazed on you in the sanctuary, to see your power and your glory.
3. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.
4. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.
5. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest food, and with joyful lips my mouth will praise you,
6. when I remember you on my bed and think of you through the watches of the night.
7. For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.
8. My soul clings to you; your right hand holds me up.
9. But those who seek my life, to destroy it, will go down into the depths of the earth.
10. They will be given over to the power of the sword; they will become food for jackals.
11. But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by him will boast, for the mouths of those who speak lies will be shut.
