Psalm 63

63
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
1O 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;
2To see thy power and thy glory,
So as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3Because thy lovingkindness
Is better than life,
My lips shall praise thee.
4Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;
And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6When I remember thee upon my bed,
And meditate on thee in the night watches.
7Because thou hast been my help,
Therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8My soul followeth hard after thee:
Thy right hand upholdeth me.
9But those that seek my soul, to destroy it,
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 God; Every one that sweareth by him shall glory:
But the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
