Psalms 63

NEW JERUSALEM	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 [Psalm Of David When he was in the desert of Judah] God, you are my God, I pine for you; my heartthirsts for you, my body longs for you, as a land parched, dreary and waterless.	1 O 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;
2 Thus I have gazed on you in the sanctuary, seeing your power and your glory.	2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Better your faithful love than life itself; my lips wil praise you.	3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus I will bless you al my life, in your name lift up my hands.	4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 Al my longings fulfil ed as with fat and rich foods, a song of joy on my lips and praise in my mouth.	5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6 On my bed when I think of you, I muse on you in the watches of the night,	6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 for you have always been my help; in the shadow of your wings I rejoice;	7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 my heart clings to you, your right hand supports me.	8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9 May those who are hounding me to death go down to the depths of the earth,	9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 given over to the blade of the sword, and left as food for jackals.	10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 Then the king shall rejoice in God, al who swear by him shal gain recognition, for the mouths of liarsshall be silenced.	11 But 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.
