Psalms 63

1 A Psalme of David. When he was in the wildernesse of Judah. O God, thou art my God, earely will I seeke thee: my soule thirsteth for thee: my flesh longeth greatly after thee in a barren and drye land without water.

達味詩歌，作於飄流在猶大曠野時。 天主，您是我的天主，我急切祈求您；我的靈魂渴慕您，我的肉身切望您，我有如一塊乾旱涸竭的無水田地。

2 Thus I beholde thee as in the Sanctuarie, when I beholde thy power and thy glorie.

我在聖殿裏瞻仰過您，為看到您的威能和您的光輝；

3 For thy louing kindnesse is better then life: therefore my lippes shall prayse thee.

您的慈愛比生命更為寶貴，我的唇舌要時常稱頌您。

4 Thus will I magnifie thee all my life, and lift vp mine hands in thy name.

我要一生一世讚美您，我要因您的名把手舉起！

5 My soule shalbe satisfied, as with marowe and fatnesse, and my mouth shall praise thee with ioyfull lippes,

我的心靈好像飽享了膏脂，我要以歡愉的口唇讚美您。

6 When I remember thee on my bedde, and when I thinke vpon thee in the night watches.

我在床上想起了您，徹夜不眠地默想著您。

7 Because thou hast bene mine helper, therefore vnder the shadow of thy wings wil I reioyce.

因為您作了我的助佑，我要在您的羽翼下歡舞。

8 My soule cleaueth vnto thee: for thy right hand vpholdeth me.

我的心靈緊緊追隨您，您的右手常常扶持著我。

9 Therefore they that seeke my soule to destroy it, they shall goe into the lowest partes of the earth.

那些謀圖陷害我命的人，必將墜落在地下的深層；

10 They shall cast him downe with the edge of the sword, and they shall be a portion for foxes.

他們必為刀劍所殺死，也必然為野犬所分食。

11 But the King shall reioyce in God, and all that sweare by him shall reioyce in him: for the mouth of them that speake lyes, shall be stopped.

但是君王必要因天主而喜慶；凡以天主宣誓的人，必要自幸，因為說謊的口，必要瘖啞失聲。
