O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water.

Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray.

One night as I lay in bed, I yearned for my lover. I yearned for him, but he did not come.So I said to myself,“ I will get up and roam the city, searching in all its streets and squares. I will search for the one I love.” So I searched everywhere but did not find him.The watchmen stopped me as they made their rounds, and I asked,“ Have you seen the one I love?”Then scarcely had I left them when I found my love! I caught and held him tightly, then I brought him to my mother’s house, into my mother’s bed, where I had been conceived.

One day soon afterward Jesus went up on a mountain to pray, and he prayed to God all night.

Then I will return to my place until they admit their guilt and turn to me. For as soon as trouble comes, they will earnestly search for me.”

I rise at midnight to thank you for your just regulations.

I lie awake thinking of you, meditating on you through the night.Because you are my helper, I sing for joy in the shadow of your wings.

At the same time there was a terrible earthquake that destroyed a tenth of the city. Seven thousand people died in that earthquake, and everyone else was terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

Seek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near.

“ I love all who love me. Those who search will surely find me.

When I was in deep trouble, I searched for the Lord. All night long I prayed, with hands lifted toward heaven, but my soul was not comforted.I think of God, and I moan, overwhelmed with longing for his help. Interlude

I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.

Then they will learn that you alone are called the Lord, that you alone are the Most High, supreme over all the earth.

I slept, but my heart was awake, when I heard my lover knocking and calling:“ Open to me, my treasure, my darling, my dove, my perfect one. My head is drenched with dew, my hair with the dampness of the night.”But I responded,“ I have taken off my robe. Should I get dressed again? I have washed my feet. Should I get them soiled?”My lover tried to unlatch the door, and my heart thrilled within me.I jumped up to open the door for my love, and my hands dripped with perfume. My fingers dripped with lovely myrrh as I pulled back the bolt.I opened to my lover, but he was gone! My heart sank. I searched for him but could not find him anywhere. I called to him, but there was no reply.The night watchmen found me as they made their rounds. They beat and bruised me and stripped off my veil, those watchmen on the walls.Make this promise, O women of Jerusalem— If you find my lover, tell him I am weak with love.

Then everyone will be afraid; they will proclaim the mighty acts of God and realize all the amazing things he does.

When God began killing them, they finally sought him. They repented and took God seriously.

Then at last everyone will say,“ There truly is a reward for those who live for God; surely there is a God who judges justly here on earth.”

But as surely as I live, and as surely as the earth is filled with the Lord’s glory,not one of these people will ever enter that land. They have all seen my glorious presence and the miraculous signs I performed both in Egypt and in the wilderness, but again and again they have tested me by refusing to listen to my voice.They will never even see the land I swore to give their ancestors. None of those who have treated me with contempt will ever see it.

The Lord did this to purge Israel’s wickedness, to take away all her sin. As a result, all the pagan altars will be crushed to dust. No Asherah pole or pagan shrine will be left standing.
