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. |
