Thirsty for God

(2 Samuel 15:30-37)
1
God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.
2
So I have seen you in the sanctuary, watching your power and your glory.
3
Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.
4
So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name.
5
My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,
6
when I remember you on my bed, and think about you in the night watches.
7
For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.
8
My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.
9
But those who 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 jackal food.
11
But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him will praise him, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.

Thirsty for God

(2 Samuel 15:30-37)
1
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;(a) (b)
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 marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:(c)
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
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.(d)
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.
