A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. 1O God, You are my God; early will I seek You; my soul and my whole body thirst for You in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is,
2To see Your power and Your glory, as I have seen You in the sanctuary.
3Because Your loving devotion is better than life, my lips shall praise You.
4And so will I bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.
5My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest of foods; and I shall praise You with joyful lips,
6When I remember You and reflect upon You at night in bed.
7Because You have been my help, therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice.
8My soul clings fast to You; Your right hand upholds me.
9But those who want to kill me shall come to ruin, and go into the depths of the earth.
10They shall fall by the sword; and become food for jackals.
11But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by Him shall glory; but the mouth of liars shall be silenced. A Psalm of David. Easy Reader Bible: Purple Letter Edition © 2023 by Jim Musser. Used by Permission. All rights Reserved. Bible Hub |
