My soul yearns for you in the night;(G)
    in the morning my spirit longs(H) for you.
When your judgments(I) come upon the earth,
    the people of the world learn righteousness.(J)

  1. Isaiah 26:8 Or judgments

The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.

Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.

With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
