Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.
My soul hath desired thee in the night: yea, and with my spirit within me in the morning early I will watch to thee. When thou shalt do thy judgments on the earth, the inhabitants of the world shall learn justice.
Send forth lightning, and thou shalt scatter them: shoot out thy arrows, and thou shalt trouble them.
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved, that you tell him that I languish with love.
Who will grant me that I might know and find him, and come even to his throne?
[O] THAT thou wouldst rend the heavens and wouldst come down. The mountains would melt away at thy presence.
How beautiful are thy tabernacles, O Jacob, and thy tents, O Israel!
