Chapter 63 |
| 1 | O God, thou
art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh
longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; |
| 2 | To see
thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. |
| 3 |
Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise
thee. |
| 4 |
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands
in thy name. |
| 5
| My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;
and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: |
| 6 | When I
remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
|
| 7 | Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings
will I rejoice. |
|
8 | My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand
upholdeth me. |
|
9 | But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go
into the lower parts of the earth. |
| 10 | They shall fall by the sword:
they shall be a portion for foxes. |
| 11 | But the king shall rejoice in
God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that
speak lies shall be stopped. |
