My soul is consumed with longing for your ordinances at all times.
Will they take delight in the Almighty? Will they call upon God at all times?
Happy are those who observe justice, who do righteousness at all times.
With open mouth I pant, because I long for your commandments.
I long for your salvation, O Lord, and your law is my delight.
See, I have longed for your precepts; in your righteousness be gracious to me.
O God, you are my God; I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
My soul longs, indeed it faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God.
Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
A friend loves at all times, and kinsfolk are born to share adversity.
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved, tell him this: I am faint with love.
