Psalms 63

CEBA

NIV

1 God! My God! It's you— I search for you! My whole being thirsts for you! My body desires you in a dry and tired land, no water anywhere.
1 You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.
2 Yes, I've seen you in the sanctuary; I've seen your power and glory.
2 I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.
3 My lips praise you because your faithful love is better than life itself!
3 Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.
4 So I will bless you as long as I'm alive; I will lift up my hands in your name.
4 I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.
5 I'm fully satisfied— as with a rich dinner. My mouth speaks praise with joy on my lips—
5 I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
6 whenever I ponder you on my bed, whenever I meditate on you in the middle of the night—
6 On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night.
7 because you've been a help to me and I shout for joy in the protection of your wings.
7 Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.
8 My whole being clings to you; your strong hand upholds me.
8 I cling to you; your right hand upholds me.
9 But what about those people who want to destroy me? Let them go into the bowels of the earth!
9 Those who want to kill me will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth.
10 Let their blood flow by the sword! Let them be food for wild jackals!
10 They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals.
11 But the king should rejoice in God; everyone who swears by God should give praise when the mouths of liars are shut for good.
11 But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God will glory in him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced.
