my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
where there is no water.

5 I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you.

8 I cling to you;
your right hand upholds me.

10 They will be given over to the sword
and become food for jackals.
