i1 [A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.] i0 par O God, You are my Mighty God. I will seek You earnestly; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You, as in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.

My soul longs, yea, is spent for the courts of Jehovah; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living Mighty God.

KAPH: My soul is spent for Your salvation; I hope in Your Word.

My eyes fail for Your Word, saying, When will You comfort me?

Though He slay me, yet will I wait for Him; but I will prove my own ways before Him.

We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.

Therefore we do not faint. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

while we do not contemplate the things which are seen, but the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand.

Hereafter, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all the ones loving His appearing.

knowing that shortly I must put off my tent, just as our Lord Jesus Christ made known to me.

Jehovah is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my Mighty God, my rock wall, in whom I will trust; He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Wait upon Jehovah; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, upon Jehovah!

In the day when I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul.

He gives power to the faint; and to him with no strength, He increases might.

but those who wait upon Jehovah shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

And He said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Therefore most gladly I will rather exult in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell upon me.

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Jehovah is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; You shall uphold my lot.

The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; yea, I have a beautiful inheritance.

CHETH: You are my portion, O Jehovah; I have said that I would keep Your Words.

I cried out unto You, O Jehovah: I said, You are my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.

Jehovah is my portion, says my soul; therefore I will hope in Him.

And I heard a loud voice from Heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.

And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.

He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
