1 (63-1) A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. (63-2) O God, Thou art my God, earnestly will I seek Thee; my soul thirsteth for Thee, my flesh longeth for Thee, in a dry and weary land, where no water is.10 (63-11) They shall be hurled to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for foxes.11 (63-12) But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by Him shall glory; for the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.2 (63-3) So have I looked for Thee in the sanctuary, to see Thy power and Thy glory.3 (63-4) For Thy lovingkindness is better than life; my lips shall praise Thee.4 (63-5) So will I bless Thee as long as I live; in Thy name will I lift up my hands.5 (63-6) My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth doth praise Thee with joyful lips;6 (63-7) When I remember Thee upon my couch, and meditate on Thee in the night-watches.7 (63-8) For Thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of Thy wings do I rejoice.8 (63-9) My soul cleaveth unto Thee; Thy right hand holdeth me fast.9 (63-10) But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the nethermost parts of the earth.
