5 Who satisfies your desire with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
but those who wait for Yahweh shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.
Blessed is one whom you choose, and cause to come near, That he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, Your holy temple.
You give to them; they gather. You open your hand; they are satisfied with good.
Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy;
Therefore we don't faint, but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.
