The Epistle of Barnabas
EpiBar
[A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Idumea.]
[1]O God, my God, I cry to thee early; my soul has thirsted for thee: how often has my flesh longed after thee, in a barren and trackless and dry land! [No book]
[2]Thus have I appeared before thee in the sanctuary, that I might see thy power and thy glory. [No book]
[3]For thy mercy is better than life: my lips shall praise thee. [No book]
[4]Thus will I bless thee during my life: I will lift up my hands in thy name. [No book]
[5]Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness; and my joyful lips shall praise thy name. [No book]
[6]Forasmuch as I have remembered thee on my bed: in the early seasons I have meditated on thee. [No book]
[7]For thou hast been my helper, and in the shelter of thy wings will I rejoice. [No book]
[8]My soul has kept very close behind thee: thy right hand has upheld me. [No book]
[9]But they vainly sought after my soul; they shall go into the lowest parts o the earth. [No book]
[10]They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword; they shall be portions for foxes. [No book]
[11]But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped. [No book]
