My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times.

My soul faints with longing for your salvation, but I have put my hope in your word.

My soul is consumed with longing for your rules at all times.

My soul longs for your salvation; I hope in your word.

I am always overwhelmed with a desire for your regulations.

I am worn out waiting for your rescue, but I have put my hope in your word.

I am continually overcome with longing for your judgments.

I long for your salvation;  I put my hope in your word.

My soul breaketh for the longing That it hath unto thy judgments at all times.

My soul fainteth for thy salvation: But I hope in thy word.

My soul breaks with longing For Your judgments at all times.

My soul faints for Your salvation, But I hope in Your word.

Be generous with me and I’ll live a full life; not for a minute will I take my eyes off your road. Open my eyes so I can see what you show me of your miracle-wonders. I’m a stranger in these parts; give me clear directions. My soul is starved and hungry, ravenous!— insatiable for your nourishing commands. And those who think they know so much, ignoring everything you tell them—let them have it! Don’t let them mock and humiliate me; I’ve been careful to do just what you said. While bad neighbors maliciously gossip about me, I’m absorbed in pondering your wise counsel. Yes, your sayings on life are what give me delight; I listen to them as to good neighbors! * * *

I’m homesick—longing for your salvation; I’m waiting for your word of hope. My eyes grow heavy watching for some sign of your promise; how long must I wait for your comfort? There’s smoke in my eyes—they burn and water, but I keep a steady gaze on the instructions you post. How long do I have to put up with all this? How long till you haul my tormentors into court? The arrogant godless try to throw me off track, ignorant as they are of God and his ways. Everything you command is a sure thing, but they harass me with lies. Help! They’ve pushed and pushed—they never let up— but I haven’t relaxed my grip on your counsel. In your great love revive me so I can alertly obey your every word. * * *

My soul is crushed with longing For Your ordinances at all times.

¶My soul languishes for Your salvation; I wait for Your word.

My soul is crushed with longing For Your ordinances at all times.

¶My soul languishes and grows weak for Your salvation; I wait for Your word.

I desperately long to know your regulations at all times.

I desperately long for your deliverance. I find hope in your word.
