Psalms 63
1 A Psalme of David. When he was in the wildernesse of Judah. O God, thou art my God, earely will I seeke thee: my soule thirsteth for thee: my flesh longeth greatly after thee in a barren and drye land without water.
O God, you are my God; early will I seek you: my soul thirsts for you, my flesh longs for you in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2 Thus I beholde thee as in the Sanctuarie, when I beholde thy power and thy glorie.
To see your power and your glory, so as I have seen you in the sanctuary.
3 For thy louing kindnesse is better then life: therefore my lippes shall prayse thee.
Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.
4 Thus will I magnifie thee all my life, and lift vp mine hands in thy name.
Thus will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name.
5 My soule shalbe satisfied, as with marowe and fatnesse, and my mouth shall praise thee with ioyfull lippes,
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise you with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee on my bedde, and when I thinke vpon thee in the night watches.
When I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast bene mine helper, therefore vnder the shadow of thy wings wil I reioyce.
Because you have been my help, therefore in the shadow of your wings will I rejoice.
8 My soule cleaueth vnto thee: for thy right hand vpholdeth me.
My soul follows hard after you: your right hand upholds me.
9 Therefore they that seeke my soule to destroy it, they shall goe into the lowest partes of the earth.
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall cast him downe with the edge of the sword, and they shall be a portion for foxes.
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 But the King shall reioyce in God, and all that sweare by him shall reioyce in him: for the mouth of them that speake lyes, shall be stopped.
But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
