"My body has failed, and my heart: O God of my heart, and God my portion, into eternity. "
— Psalms 72:26, Catholic Public Domain Version
“For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.”
I have become like a beast of burden to you, and I am always with you.
You have held my right hand. And in your will, you have conducted me, and with your glory, you have taken me up.
For what is there for me in heaven? And what do I wish for on earth before you?
My body has failed, and my heart: O God of my heart, and God my portion, into eternity.
For behold, those who put themselves far from you will perish. You have perished all those who fornicate away from you.
But it is good for me to adhere to God, to put my hope in the Lord God, so that I may announce all your prophecies, at the gates of the daughter of Zion.
