63:1 |
O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. |
63:2 |
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. |
63:3 |
Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. |
63:4 |
I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. |
63:5 |
My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. |
63:6 |
On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. |
63:7 |
Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. |
63:8 |
My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me. |
63:9 |
They who seek my life will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth. |
63:10 |
They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals. |
63:11 |
But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God's name will praise him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced. |
