⁵ I remember^(A) the days of long ago;
    I meditate^(B) on all your works
    and consider what your hands have done.
⁶ I spread out my hands^(C) to you;
    I thirst for you like a parched land.^[a]

    When can I go^(F) and meet with God?

¹ You, God, are my God,
    earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,^(A)
    my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
    where there is no water.^(B)

² My soul yearns,^(A) even faints,
    for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
    for the living God.^(B)

55 “Come, all you who are thirsty,^(A)
    come to the waters;^(B)
and you who have no money,
    come, buy^(C) and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk^(D)
    without money and without cost.^(E)
