Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible KJV King James Version

A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God . Earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body yearns for You in a dry and weary land without water .

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 thirsty land , where no water is;

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

To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

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

Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee .

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

Thus will I bless thee while I live : I will lift up my hands in thy name .

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

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness ; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

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

When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches .

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

Because thou hast been my help , therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice .

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

My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

But those who seek my life to destroy it will go into the depths of the earth.

But those that seek my soul, to destroy it , shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

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

They shall fall by the sword : they shall be a portion for foxes.

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

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 .
