My being is crushed with longing For Your right-rulings at all times.
Would he delight himself in the Almighty – call on Eloah at all times?
Blessed are those who guard right-ruling, Who do righteousness at all times!
I have opened my mouth and panted, For I have longed for Your commands.
I have longed for Your deliverance, O יהוה, And Your Torah is my delight.
See, I have longed for Your orders; Revive me in Your righteousness.
O Elohim, You are my Ěl; I earnestly seek You; My being has thirsted for You; My flesh has longed for You In a dry and thirsty land without water.
My being has longed, and even fainted, For the courts of יהוה; My heart and my flesh cry out for the living Ěl.
Expectancy drawn out makes the heart sick, But a longing come true is a tree of life.
A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.
I have put you under oath, O daughters of Yerushalayim, If you find my beloved, That you inform him that I am faint with love!
