Psalms 63

1 A PSALM OF DAVID, IN HIS BEING IN THE WILDERNESS OF JUDAH. O God, You [are] my God, earnestly I seek You, My soul has thirsted for You, My flesh has longed for You, In a dry and weary land, without waters.

大衛在猶大曠野的時候，作了這詩。 上帝啊，你是我的上帝， 我要切切地尋求你， 在乾旱疲乏無水之地，我渴想你； 我的心切慕你。

2 So I have seen You in the sanctuary, To behold Your strength and Your glory.

我在聖所中曾如此瞻仰你， 為要見你的能力和你的榮耀。

3 Because better [is] Your kindness than life, My lips praise You.

因你的慈愛比生命更好， 我的嘴唇要頌讚你。

4 So I bless You in my life, I lift up my hands in Your Name.

我還活的時候要這樣稱頌你； 我要奉你的名舉手。

5 As [with] milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And [with] singing lips my mouth praises.

我在床上記念你， 在夜更的時候思想你； 我的心就像飽足了骨髓肥油， 我也要以歡樂的嘴唇讚美你。

6 If I have remembered You on my bed, I meditate on You in the watches.

7 For You have been a help to me, And I sing in the shadow of Your wings.

因為你曾幫助我， 我就在你翅膀的蔭下歡呼。

8 My soul has cleaved after You, Your right hand has taken hold on me.

我心緊緊地跟隨你； 你的右手扶持我。

9 And they who seek my soul for desolation, Go into the lower parts of the earth.

但那些尋索要滅我命的人 必往地底下去；

10 They cause him to run on the edge of the sword, They are a portion for foxes.

他們必被刀劍所殺， 被野狗所吃。

11 And the king rejoices in God, Everyone swearing by Him boasts, But the mouth of those speaking lies is stopped!

但是王必因上帝歡喜。 凡指着他發誓的必要誇口， 因為說謊之人的口必被塞住。
