earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
where there is no water.
2 I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
3 Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
4 I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
5 I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you.

But what shall I make ofthe strange fact that your acceptance ofthe truth has no effect on you? It is a very lamentable case, is it not, that a person should believe the Gospel to be true, and yet should live as if it were a lie?"

I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
