< Psalms 63 >
1 A psalm of David when was he in [the] wilderness of Judah. O God - [are] God my you I am seeking earnestly you it is thirsty for you - self my it longs for you flesh my in a land dry and weary not water.
“A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.” O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry land, and it is faint without water.
2 Thus in the sanctuary I have seen you to see strength your and glory your.
As I have beheld thee in the sanctuary, seeing thy strength and thy glory;
3 For [is] good covenant loyalty your more than life lips my they will extol you.
Because thy kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee:
4 Thus I will bless you in life my in name your I will lift up hands my.
Thus will I bless thee while I live; in thy name will I lift up my hands.
5 Like fat and fatness it will be satisfied self my and lips of cries of joy it will praise [you] mouth my.
As with fat and marrow will my soul be satisfied; and with tuneful lips shall my mouth praise thee.
6 If I have remembered you on beds my in [the] night-watches I meditate on you.
When I remember thee upon my couch, I meditate on thee in the night-watches.
7 For you are a help of me and in [the] shadow of wings your I shout for joy.
Because thou hast been a help unto me; and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing rejoicingly.
8 It clings self my after you me it supports right [hand] your.
My soul cleaveth unto following thee: me thy right hand upholdeth.
9 And they to destruction they are seeking life my they will go in [the] lower parts of the earth.
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go down into the lowest deeps of the earth.
10 People will pour him over [the] hands of [the] sword [the] portion of foxes they will be.
They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword: they shall become a prey for jackals.
11 And the king he will rejoice in God he will boast every [one who] swears an oath by him for it will be shut up [the] mouth of [those who] speak falsehood.
But the king shall rejoice in God: every one that sweareth by him shall glorify himself; for the mouth of those that speak falsehood shall be stopped.
