Thirsting for God

(2 Samuel 15:30–37)

A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah.

1O God, You are my God.Earnestly I seek You;my soul thirsts for You.My body yearns for Youin a dry and weary land without water.

2So I have seen You in the sanctuaryand beheld Your power and glory.

3Because Your loving devotion is better than life,my lips will glorify You.

4So I will bless You as long as I live;in Your name I will lift my hands.

5My soul is satisfied as with the richest of foods;with joyful lips my mouth will praise You.

6When I remember You on my bed,I think of You through the watches of the night.

7For You are my help;I will sing for joy in the shadow of Your wings.

8My soul clings to You;Your right hand upholds me.

9But those who seek my life to destroy itwill go into the depths of the earth.

10They will fall to the power of the sword;they will become a portion for foxes.

11But the king will rejoice in God;all who swear by Him will exult,for the mouths of liars will be shut.
