1 O h Dios, Tú eres mi Dios; Te buscaré con afán. Mi alma tiene sed de Ti, mi carne Te anhela Cual tierra seca y árida donde no hay agua.

O God, You are my God. I will look for You with all my heart and strength. My soul is thirsty for You. My flesh is weak wanting You in a dry and tired land where there is no water.

2 A sí Te contemplaba en el santuario, Para ver Tu poder y Tu gloria.

So I have seen You in the holy place. And I have seen Your power and Your shining-greatness.

3 P orque Tu misericordia es mejor que la vida, Mis labios Te alabarán.

My lips will praise You because Your loving-kindness is better than life.

4 A sí Te bendeciré mientras viva, En Tu nombre alzaré mis manos.

So I will give honor to You as long as I live. I will lift up my hands in Your name.

5 C omo con médula y grasa está saciada mi alma; Y con labios jubilosos Te alaba mi boca.

My soul will be filled as with rich foods. And my mouth praises You with lips of joy.

6 C uando en mi lecho me acuerdo de Ti, En Ti medito durante las vigilias de la noche.

On my bed I remember You. I think of You through the hours of the night.

7 P orque Tú has sido mi ayuda, Y a la sombra de Tus alas canto gozoso.

For You have been my help. And I sing for joy in the shadow of Your wings.

8 A Ti se aferra mi alma; Tu diestra me sostiene.

My soul holds on to You. Your right hand holds me up.

9 P ero los que buscan mi vida para destruirla, Caerán a las profundidades de la tierra.

But those who want to take my life and destroy it will go deep into the earth.

10 S erán entregados al poder de la espada; Presa serán de las zorras.

They will be given over to the power of the sword. They will become food for foxes.

11 P ero el rey se regocijará en Dios; Y todo el que por El jura se gloriará, Porque la boca de los que dicen mentiras será cerrada.

But the king will be full of joy in God. All who are faithful to God will be full of joy. For the mouth of those who speak lies will be stopped.
