Where would I be if I did not believe I would experience the Lord’s favor in the land of the living? ¹ 

I thirst ¹  for God, for the living God. I say, ²  “When will I be able to go and appear in God’s presence?” ³ 

By day the Lord decrees his loyal love, ¹  and by night he gives me a song, ²  a prayer ³  to the living God.

You, by your power, ¹  defeated nations and settled our fathers on their land; ²  you crushed ³  the people living there ⁴  and enabled our ancestors to occupy it. ⁵ 

May their names be deleted from the scroll of the living! ¹  Do not let their names be listed with the godly! ²

To obey the Lord is the fundamental principle for wise living; ¹  all who carry out his precepts acquire good moral insight. ²  He will receive praise forever. ³

So the prophet Jeremiah spoke to all the people of Judah and to all the people who were living in Jerusalem. ¹
