Selah. ness of Judah. O GOD, thou art my God, early will I seek thee my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee, in a dry and a thirsty land, where no water is: 2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. 3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life : my lips shall praise thee. 4 Thus will I bless thee, while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name. 5 My soul shall be satisfied as with e marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: 6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches. 7 Because thou hast been my help; therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. : 8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me. 9 But those that seek my soul to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth. 10 d They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes. 11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies, shall be stopped. a Heb. weary. b Heb. without water. c Heb. fatness. d Heb.

To the chief Musician, HEAR my voice, O God, in my prayer; preserve my life from fear of the enemy. 2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked : from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity: 3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words: 4 That they may shoot in suddenly do they shoot 5 at him, and fear not. 5 They encourage themselves in an evil a matter: they commune b of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them ? 6 They search out iniquities, they accomplished a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the : heart, is deep. 7 But God shall shoot at them: with an arrow, suddenly shall they be wounded. So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them, shall flee away. 9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing. 10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory. סר vow be performed. 2 O 6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power. 7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas; the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people. 8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning, and evening b to rejoice. 9 Thou visitest the earth and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river water ; thou preparest thy goodness; and thyiya paths drop fatness.12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness; and the little hills s rejoice on every side. 13 The pas tures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing. b Or, to sing. 12 c Or, after thou hadst made it to desire rain. f Heb. the year of a Heb.
