1 神啊！ 你是我的 神， 我要切切寻求你； 在干旱、疲乏、无水之地， 我的心， 我的身， 都渴想你， 切慕你。

2 因此， 我在圣所中瞻仰你， 为要见你的能力和荣耀。

3 因你的慈爱比生命更好， 我的嘴唇要颂赞你。

4 我要一生称颂你， 我要奉你的名举手祷告。

5 我的心满足， 就像饱享了骨髓肥油； 我要用欢乐的嘴唇赞美你。

6 我在床上记念你， 我整夜默想你。

7 因为你帮助了我， 我要在你翅膀的荫下欢呼。

8 我心紧紧追随你； 你的右手扶持我。

9 但那些寻索我、要杀我的人， 必下到地的深处。

10 他们必交在刀剑之下， 成了野狗的食物。

11 但王必因 神欢喜； 所有指着 神起誓的， 都必可以夸耀； 说谎的人的口却必被塞住。

1 O God, thou art my God; earnestly will I seek thee:

My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee,

In a dry and weary land, where no water is.

2 So have I looked upon thee in the sanctuary,

To see thy power and thy glory.

3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life,

My lips shall praise thee.

4 So will I bless thee while I live:

I will lift up my hands in thy name.

5 My soul shall be satisfied as with 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 For thou hast been my help,

And 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 They shall be given over to the power of 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;

For the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
