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 O God, you are my God, and I long for you. My whole being desires you; like a dry, worn-out, and waterless land, my soul is thirsty for you.

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

2 Let me see you in the sanctuary; let me see how mighty and glorious you are.

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

3 Your constant love is better than life itself, and so I will praise you.

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

4 I will give you thanks as long as I live; I will raise my hands to you in prayer.

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

5 My soul will feast and be satisfied, and I will sing glad songs of praise to you.

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

6 As I lie in bed, I remember you; all night long I think of you,

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

7 because you have always been my help. In the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.

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

8 I cling to you, and your hand keeps me safe.

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

9 Those who are trying to kill me will go down into the world of the dead.

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

10 They will be killed in battle, and their bodies eaten by wolves.

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 Because God gives him victory, the king will rejoice. Those who make promises in God's name will praise him, but the mouths of liars will be shut.
