1 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.

Oh 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.

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

Así Te contemplaba en el santuario, Para ver Tu poder y Tu gloria.

3 M y lips will praise You because Your loving-kindness is better than life.

Porque Tu misericordia es mejor que la vida, Mis labios Te alabarán.

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

Así Te bendeciré mientras viva, En Tu nombre alzaré mis manos.

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

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

6 O n my bed I remember You. I think of You through the hours of the night.

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

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

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

8 M y soul holds on to You. Your right hand holds me up.

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

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

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

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

Serán entregados al poder de la espada; Presa serán de las zorras.

11 B ut 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.

Pero 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.
