Psalm 63

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.

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.

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

2 Yes, I've seen you in the sanctuary; I've seen your power and glory.

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

3 My lips praise you because your faithful love is better than life itself!

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

4 So I will bless you as long as I'm alive; I will lift up my hands in your name.

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

5 I'm fully satisfied— as with a rich dinner. My mouth speaks praise with joy on my lips—

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

6 whenever I ponder you on my bed, whenever I meditate on you in the middle of the night—

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

7 because you've been a help to me and I shout for joy in the protection of your wings.

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

8 My whole being clings to you; your strong hand upholds me.

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

9 But what about those people who want to destroy me? Let them go into the bowels of the earth!

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

10 Let their blood flow by the sword! Let them be food for wild jackals!

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.

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.
