My soul failed for thy, salvation: I hoped for thy word.
Which I shall see for myself, and mine eyes beheld, and not a stranger: my reins were finished in my bosom.
Thou my hiding and my shield: I hoped for thy word.
My soul was crushed for the desire to thy judgments in all time.
Behold, I desired for thy charges: make me alive in thy justice.
And thy mercy shall come to me, O Jehovah, thy salvation according to thy saying.
And I will answer him reproaching me a word, for I trusted in thy word.
And thou wilt not take away from my mouth the word of truth even wholly: for I hoped for thy judgments.
They fearing thee shall see me and be glad; for I hoped for thy word.
Thy compassion shall come to me and I shall live, for thy law is my delight
I waited for Jehovah, my soul waited, and I hoped for his word
My flesh failed and my heart: the rock of my heart and my portion is God forever.
My soul longed after, and also failed for the enclosures of Jehovah: my heart and my flesh will rejoice for the living God.
I adjured you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye shall find my beloved, what ye shall announce to him: I am pierced by love.
