| 1 | A psalm of David when he was in the desert of Edom. O God, my God, to thee do I watch at break of day. For thee my soul hath thirsted; for thee my flesh, O how many ways! | O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. | A psalm of David. When he was in the Desert of Judah. You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water. | |
| 2 | In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory. | So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. | I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. | |
| 3 | For thy mercy is better than lives: thee my lips shall praise. | Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. | Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. | |
| 4 | Thus will I bless thee all my life long: and in thy name I will lift up my hands. | So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. | I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. | |
| 5 | Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips. | My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, | I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. | |
| 6 | If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning: | when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; | On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. | |
| 7 | because thou hast been my helper. And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: | for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. | Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. | |
| 8 | my soul hath stuck close to thee: thy right hand hath received me. | My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me. | I cling to you; your right hand upholds me. | |
| 9 | But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: | But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into the depths of the earth; | Those who want to kill me will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth. | |
| 10 | They shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes. | they shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for jackals. | They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals. | |
| 11 | But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things. | But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall exult, for the mouths of liars will be stopped. | But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God will glory in him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced. | |
