PS-63:1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.

 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;

PS-63:2 To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee

in the

sanctuary.

PS-63:3 Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my

lips shall praise

thee.

PS-63:4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my

hands in thy

name.

PS-63:5 My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness;

and my mouth

shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:

PS-63:6 When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee

in the

[night] watches.

PS-63:7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow

of thy wings

will I rejoice.

PS-63:8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand

upholdeth me.

PS-63:9 But those [that] seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go

into the

lower parts of the earth.

PS-63:10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion

for foxes.

PS-63:11 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.
