⁶ Only -- goodness and kindness pursue me, All the days of my life, And my dwelling `is' in the house of Jehovah, For a length of days!

¹ For we have known that if our earthly house of the tabernacle may be thrown down, a building from God we have, an house not made with hands -- age-during -- in the heavens,

⁴ One `thing' I asked of Jehovah -- it I seek. My dwelling in the house of Jehovah, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of Jehovah, And to inquire in His temple.

¹⁸ and the Lord shall free me from every evil work, and shall save `me' -- to his heavenly kingdom; to whom `is' the glory to the ages of the ages! Amen.

²⁴ With Thy counsel Thou dost lead me, And after honour dost receive me.

²⁵ Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have desired in earth.

²⁶ Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart and my portion `is' God to the age.

¹¹ Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys `is' with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!

⁴ Life he hath asked from Thee, Thou hast given to him -- length of days, Age-during -- and for ever.

⁷ How precious `is' Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.

⁸ They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.

⁹ For with Thee `is' a fountain of life, In Thy light we see light.

¹⁰ Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright of heart.

¹¹ Thou hast turned my mourning to dancing for me, Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, And girdest me `with' joy.

¹² So that honour doth praise Thee, and is not silent, O Jehovah, my God, to the age I thank Thee!

¹⁷ And the kindness of Jehovah `Is' from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,

¹⁵ I -- in righteousness, I see Thy face; I am satisfied, in awaking, `with' Thy form!

²³ for I am pressed by the two, having the desire to depart, and to be with Christ, for it is far better,

¹⁰ who out of so great a death did deliver us, and doth deliver, in whom we have hoped that even yet He will deliver;
