AB - Psalms - 63

63:1  O God, my God, I cry to You early; my soul has thirsted for You: how often has my flesh longed after You, in a barren and trackless and dry land!

63:2  Thus have I appeared before You in the sanctuary, that I might see Your power and Your glory.

63:3  For Your mercy is better than life: my lips shall praise You.

63:4  Thus will I bless You during my life: I will lift up my hands in Your name.

63:5  Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness; and my joyful lips shall praise Your name.

63:6  For I have remembered You on my bed; in the early seasons I have meditated on You.

63:7  For You have been my helper, and in the shelter of Your wings will I rejoice.

63:8  My soul has kept very close behind You: Your right hand has upheld me.

63:9  But they vainly sought after my soul; they shall go into the lowest parts of the earth.

63:10  They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword; they shall be portions for jackals.

63:11  But the king shall rejoice in God; everyone that swears by Him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped.
