Psalms 143:6

Psa 143:6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul [thirsteth] after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

Ver. 6. I stretch forth my hands unto thee ] As a poor beggar for an alms. Beggary here is not the easiest and poorest trade, but the hardest and richest of all other.

My soul thirsteth after thee ] And is therefore a fit subject for thy Spirit of grace and comfort to be poured upon, Isaiah 44:3 ; Isaiah 55:1 .
