Psalms 63

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