Psalms 63

1 God - you're my God! I can't get enough of you! I've worked up such hunger and thirst for God, traveling across dry and weary deserts.

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 So here I am in the place of worship, eyes open, drinking in your strength and glory.

2 I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.

3 In your generous love I am really living at last! My lips brim praises like fountains.

3 Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.

4 I bless you every time I take a breath; My arms wave like banners of praise to you.

4 I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.

5 I eat my fill of prime rib and gravy; I smack my lips. It's time to shout praises!

5 I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.

6 If I'm sleepless at midnight, I spend the hours in grateful reflection.

6 On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night.

7 Because you've always stood up for me, I'm free to run and play.

7 Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.

8 I hold on to you for dear life, and you hold me steady as a post.

8 I cling to you; your right hand upholds me.

9 Those who are out to get me are marked for doom, marked for death, bound for hell.

9 Those who want to kill me will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth.

10 They'll die violent deaths; jackals will tear them limb from limb.

10 They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals.

11 But the king is glad in God; his true friends spread the joy, While small-minded gossips are gagged 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.
