Psalm 63:2-9
2 O God, my God: to you, I keep vigil until first light. For you, my soul has thirsted, to you my body, in so many ways. 3 By a deserted land, both inaccessible and waterless, so I have appeared in the sanctuary before you, in order to behold your virtue and your glory. 4 For your mercy is better than life itself. It is you my lips will praise. 5 So will I bless you in my life, and I will lift up my hands in your name. 6 Let my soul be filled, as if with marrow and fatness; and my mouth will give praise with exultant lips. 7 When I have remembered you on my bed in the morning, I will meditate on you. 8 For you have been my helper. And I will exult under the cover of your wings. 9 My soul has clung close to you. Your right hand has supported me. Jeremiah 20:7-9 7 "You have led me away, O Lord, and I have been led away. You have been stronger than I, and you have prevailed. I have become a derision all day long; everyone mocks me. 8 For I speak now as I have long spoken: crying out against iniquity and proclaiming devastation. And the word of the Lord has been made into a reproach against me and a derision, all day long. 9 Then I said: I will not call him to mind, nor will I speak any longer in his name. And my heart became like a raging fire, enclosed within my bones. And I became weary of continuing to bear it.
