1 Samuel 22:5

For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and streams on the dry ground. I will pour my Spirit on your descendants, and my blessing on your offspring:

My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?

My soul longs, and even faints for the courts of Yahweh. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

I spread out my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land.

(In earlier times in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, he said, “Come! Let’s go to the seer;” for he who is now called a prophet was before called a seer.)

I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required; the doorkeepers also by their divisions at every gate, for David the man of God had so commanded.

Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, aren’t they written in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam the son of Nebat?

“Hey! Come, everyone who thirsts, to the waters! Come, he who has no money, buy, and eat! Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest, and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’

Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.

David swore moreover, and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, ‘Don’t let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved;’ but truly as Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.”

four thousand were doorkeepers, and four thousand praised Yahweh with the instruments which I made for giving praise.”

But I trust in you, Yahweh. I said, “You are my God.”

You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.

My soul is consumed with longing for your ordinances at all times.

If you falter in the time of trouble, your strength is small.

For it will be that as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.

With my soul I have desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me I will seek you earnestly; for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

I will open rivers on the bare heights, and springs in the middle of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.

“At that time,” says Yahweh, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”

Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!

the king said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but God’s ark dwells within curtains.”

Yahweh spoke to Gad, David’s seer, saying,

David divided them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

All these were the sons of Heman the king’s seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.

Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,

also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brothers, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and stringed instruments and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them one hundred twenty priests sounding with trumpets);

He set the Levites in Yahweh’s house with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was from Yahweh by his prophets.

If you want to seek God diligently, make your supplication to the Almighty.

Yahweh, in the morning you will hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God.

God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.

When he killed them, then they inquired after him. They returned and sought God earnestly.

I will say of Yahweh, “He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.”

My soul faints for your salvation. I hope in your word.

Look on my right, and see; for there is no one who is concerned for me. Refuge has fled from me. No one cares for my soul.

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.

I love those who love me. Those who seek me diligently will find me.

A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the storm, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a large rock in a weary land.

The burning sand will become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water. Grass with reeds and rushes will be in the habitation of jackals, where they lay.

“But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says Yahweh: “I will put my law in their inward parts, and I will write it in their heart. I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly.”

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’ ”

But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.

When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.

The water in the container was spent, and she put the child under one of the shrubs.

The people were thirsty for water there; so the people murmured against Moses, and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?”

Why does Yahweh bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be captured or killed! Wouldn’t it be better for us to return into Egypt?”

When Yahweh your God enlarges your border, as he has promised you, and you say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat, you may eat meat, after all the desire of your soul.

David said in his heart, “I will now perish one day by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me than that I should escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me any more in all the borders of Israel. So shall I escape out of his hand.”

David longed, and said, “Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”

When David rose up in the morning, Yahweh’s word came to the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,

Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, “Amen. May Yahweh, the God of my lord the king, say so.

David longed, and said, “Oh that one would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”

Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with stringed instruments and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;

He is Yahweh our God. His judgments are in all the earth.

The priests stood, according to their positions; the Levites also with instruments of music of Yahweh, which David the king had made to give thanks to Yahweh, when David praised by their ministry, saying “For his loving kindness endures forever.” The priests sounded trumpets before them; and all Israel stood.

Jehoiada appointed the officers of Yahweh’s house under the hand of the Levitical priests, whom David had distributed in Yahweh’s house, to offer the burnt offerings of Yahweh, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as David had ordered.

Also the hand of God came on Judah to give them one heart, to do the commandment of the king and of the princes by Yahweh’s word.

“Remember, my God, Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear.”

Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!

You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it.

My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody of the lyre.

Sing praises to Yahweh with the harp, with the harp and the voice of melody.

I said in my haste, “All people are liars.”

My eyes stay open through the night watches, that I might meditate on your word.

Let them praise his name in the dance! Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp!

Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.

Like a fluttering sparrow, like a darting swallow, so the undeserved curse doesn’t come to rest.

As a bird that wanders from her nest, so is a man who wanders from his home.

“I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who will be made as grass?

You, O king, have made a decree, that every man that hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image;

But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh.

Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”

He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”

Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold me, for I haven’t yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”

Let each man stay in that calling in which he was called.
