Psalm 63 - American Standard Version 2015

¹ {\b A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.}\par\par\tab O God, thou art my God; earnestly will I seek thee:\par\tab My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee,\par\tab In a dry and weary land, where no water is.

² So have I looked upon thee in the sanctuary,\par\tab To see thy power and thy glory.

³ Because thy lovingkindness is better than life,\par\tab My lips shall praise thee.

⁴ So will I bless thee while I live:\par\tab I will lift up my hands in thy name.

⁵ My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;\par\tab And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips;

⁶ When I remember thee upon my bed,\par\tab {\i And} meditate on thee in the night-watches.

⁷ For thou hast been my help,\par\tab And in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

⁸ My soul followeth hard after thee:\par\tab Thy right hand upholdeth me.

⁹ But those that seek my soul, to destroy it,\par\tab Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

¹⁰ They shall be given over to the power of the sword:\par\tab They shall be a portion for foxes.

¹¹ But the king shall rejoice in God:\par\tab Every one that sweareth by him shall glory;\par\tab For the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.\par
