Psalm 119:81

(Kaf) I desperately long for your deliverance. I find hope in your word.

I desperately want to be in the courts of the Lord's temple. My heart and my entire being shout for joy to the living God.

For the music director; a well-written song by the Korahites. As a deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God!

My flesh and my heart may grow weak, but God always protects my heart and gives me stability.

I desperately long to know your regulations at all times.

Look, I long for your precepts. Revive me with your deliverance!

Then I will have a reply for the one who insults me, for I trust in your word.

Your loyal followers will be glad when they see me, for I find hope in your word.

May I experience your compassion, so I might live! For I find delight in your law.

You are my hiding place and my shield. I find hope in your word.

The Beloved to the Maidens: O maidens of Jerusalem, I command you -- If you find my beloved, what will you tell him? Tell him that I am lovesick!

I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either cold or hot!
