Psalms 63
The Thirsting Soul Satisfied in God.
A Psalm of David, ▼▼1 Sam 22:5; 23:14when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
1 God, bYou are my God; I shall be watching for You;
My soul cthirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,
In a ddry and exhausted land where there is no water.
2 So have I eseen You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and glory.
3 Because Your ▼
▼Or faithfulness
gfavor is better than life, My lips will praise You.
4 So I will bless You has long as I live;
I will ilift up my hands in Your name.
5 My soul is jsatisfied as with fat and fatness,
And my mouth offers kpraises with joyful lips.
6 When I remember You lon my bed,
I meditate on You in the mnight watches,
7 For nYou have been my help,
And in the oshadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
8 My soul pclings ▼
▼Lit after
to You; Your rright hand takes hold of me.
9 But those who sseek my ▼
▼Lit soul
life to destroy it, Will go into the ▼
▼Lit lowest places
vdepths of the earth. 10 ▼
▼Lit They will pour him out
They will be ▼▼Lit poured out by
yturned over to the power of the sword; They will be a ▼
▼Lit portion
aaprey for foxes. 11 But the abking will rejoice in God;
Everyone who acswears by Him will boast,
For the admouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.
