my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. - For you, O God, have tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried. - May God continue to bless us;
let all the ends of the earth revere him. - Now a mediator involves more than one party; but God is one.

so my soul longs for you, O God.
