Chapter 63
|
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
|
To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee
in the sanctuary. |
3
|
Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my
lips shall praise thee. |
4
|
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up
my hands in thy name. |
5
|
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;
and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: |
6
|
When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee
in the night watches. |
7
|
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow
of thy wings will I rejoice. |
8
|
My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth
me. |
9
|
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go
into the lower parts of the earth. |
10
|
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion
for foxes. |
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. |
