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;
63:2
To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee in
the sanctuary.
63:3
Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips
shall praise thee.
63:4
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my
hands in thy name.
63:5
My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness;
and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:
63:6
When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee in
the [night] watches.
63:7
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of
thy wings will I rejoice.
63:8
My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth
me.
63:9
But those [that] seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go
into the lower parts of the earth.
63:10
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for
foxes.
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.
