The Martyrdom of Saint Polycarp, Bishop of Smyrna
PolycMartyr
[1]A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. [No book]
[2]O God, Thou art my God, earnestly will I seek Thee; my soul thirsteth for Thee, my flesh longeth for Thee, in a dry and weary land, where no water is. [No book]
[3]So have I looked for Thee in the sanctuary, to see Thy power and Thy glory. [No book]
[4]For Thy lovingkindness is better than life; my lips shall praise Thee. [No book]
[5]So will I bless Thee as long as I live; in Thy name will I lift up my hands. [No book]
[6]My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth doth praise Thee with joyful lips; [No book]
[7]When I remember Thee upon my couch, and meditate on Thee in the night-watches. [No book]
[8]For Thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of Thy wings do I rejoice. [No book]
[9]My soul cleaveth unto Thee; Thy right hand holdeth me fast. [No book]
[10]But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the nethermost parts of the earth. [No book]
[11]They shall be hurled to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for foxes. [No book]
[12]But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by Him shall glory; for the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. [No book]
