Thirsty for God

(2 Samuel 15:30-37)
1
A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. God, you are my God! I earnestly search for you, my soul thirsts for you, and my flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2
So I have looked on you in the holy people to see your power and your glory.
3
Because your covenant faithfulness is better than life, my lips will praise you.
4
So I will bless you while I live; I will lift up my hands in your name.
5
It will be as if I ate a meal of marrow and fatness; with joyful lips my mouth will praise you,
6
when I think about you on my bed and meditate on you in the night hours.
7
For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.
8
I cling to you; your right hand supports me.
9
But those who seek to destroy my life will go down into the lowest parts of the earth;
10
they will be given over to those whose hands use the sword, and they will become food for the jackals.
11
But the king will rejoice in God; everyone who swears by him will be proud of him, but the mouth of those who speak lies will be stopped up.
