To the Chief Musician. A maschil, for the Sons of Korah. As the hart pants after the water brooks, so pants my soul after you, O God.

My soul thirsts for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?

A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, you are my God; early will I seek you: my soul thirsts for you, my flesh longs for you in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

Because your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

Yea, in the way of your judgments, O LORD, have we waited for you; the desire of our soul is to your name, and to the remembrance of you.

With my soul have I desired you in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek you early: for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved, that you tell him, that I am sick with love.

And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

And Amnon was so distressed, that he became sick over his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it improper for him to do anything to her.

The entrance of your words gives light; it gives understanding unto the simple.

I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for your commandments.
