King James Version
AFR DVK
1
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou [art] my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
O God, U is my God; vroeg sal ek U soek: my siel dors na U, my vlees verlang na U in ’n droë en dorstige land, waar geen water is nie;
2
To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
Om u mag en u heerlikheid te sien, soos ek U in die heiligdom gesien het.
3
Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
Omdat u liefde beter is as die lewe, sal my lippe U prys.
4
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
So sal ek U seën terwyl ek lewe: ek sal my hande in u Naam ophef.
5
My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:
My siel sal versadig word soos met murg en vetheid; en my mond sal U met vrolike lippe prys:
6
When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee in the [night] watches.
Wanneer ek U op my bed onthou, en aan U peins in die nagwagte.
7
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
Omdat U my hulp was, daarom sal ek juig in die skaduwee van u vlerke.
8
My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
My siel volg hard agter U aan: u regterhand ondersteun my.
9
But those [that] seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
Maar dié wat my siel soek om dit te vernietig, sal in die laer dele van die aarde ingaan.
10
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
Hulle sal deur die swaard val: hulle sal ‚'n deel vir jakkalse wees.
11
But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
Maar die koning sal juig in God; elkeen wat by Hom sweer, sal roem; maar die mond van dié wat leuens spreek, sal toegesluit word.
