Psalm 119:81

Kaph. Consumed for Thy salvation hath been my soul, For Thy word I have hoped.

My soul desired, yea, it hath also been consumed, For the courts of Jehovah, My heart and my flesh cry aloud unto the living God,

To the Overseer. -- An Instruction. By sons of Korah. As a hart doth pant for streams of water, So my soul panteth toward Thee, O God.

Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart and my portion is God to the age.

Broken hath my soul for desire Unto Thy judgments at all times.

Lo, I have longed for Thy precepts, In Thy righteousness quicken Thou me,

And I answer him who is reproaching me a word, For I have trusted in Thy word.

Those fearing Thee see me and rejoice, Because for Thy word I have hoped.

Meet me do Thy mercies, and I live, For Thy law is my delight.

My hiding place and my shield art Thou, For Thy word I have hoped.

I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, If ye find my beloved -- What do ye tell him? that I am sick with love!

I have known thy works, that neither cold art thou nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot.
