Berean Standard Bible
Chapter summary
The speaker addresses God as their God while experiencing thirst and yearning in a dry and weary land without water, having previously beheld God's power and glory in the sanctuary. Because of God's loving devotion, the speaker declares that they will glorify and bless God throughout their life, lifting their hands in God's name and feeling satisfied as with the richest of foods. The speaker remembers God during the night on their bed, recognizing God as their help and singing for joy in the shadow of God's wings while their soul clings to God and God's right hand upholds them. Meanwhile, those who seek to destroy the speaker's life will go into the depths of the earth, fall to the sword, and become a portion for foxes. Finally, the king and all who swear by God will rejoice and exult, while the mouths of liars will be shut.
