Ps 63

0 Psalm 63 A Psalm of David when he was in the wilderness of Judah. 1 O God, you are my God; earnestly will I seek you: My soul thirsts for you, my flesh longs for you, In a dry and weary land, where no water is. 2 So have I looked upon you in the sanctuary, To see your power and your glory. 3 Because your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise you. 4 So will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name. 5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; And my mouth shall praise you with joyful lips; 6 When I remember you upon my bed, [And] meditate on you in the night-watches. 7 For you have been my help, And in the shadow of your wings will I rejoice. 8 My soul follows hard after you: Your right hand upholds me. 9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, Shall go into the lower parts of the earth. 10 They shall be given over to the power of the sword: They shall be a portion for foxes. 11 But the king shall rejoice in God: Every one that swears by him shall glory; For the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
