| [1] O Lorde thou art my Lorde: early in the morning I do seeke thee. (63:2) My soule thirsteth for thee: my fleshe also longeth after thee in a baren and drye lande [where] no water is |
[1]A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. |
| [2](63:3) [To see thee] euen so [as] I haue seene thee in the sanctuary: that I might beholde thy power and glory |
[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. |
| [3](63:4) For thy louing kindnes is better then life [itselfe]: my lippes shall prayse thee |
[3]So have I looked for Thee in the sanctuary, to see Thy power and Thy glory. |
| [4](63:5) As long as I liue I wyll blesse thee on this maner: and in thy name I wyll lyft vp my handes |
[4]For Thy lovingkindness is better than life; my lips shall praise Thee. |
| [5](63:6) My soule is satisfied euen as it were with mary and fatnes: and my mouth prayseth thee with ioyfull lippes |
[5]So will I bless Thee as long as I live; in Thy name will I lift up my hands. |
| [6](63:7) Haue I not remembred thee in my bed: and thought vpon thee when I was waking |
[6]My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth doth praise Thee with joyful lips; |
| [7](63:8) Because thou hast ben my helper: therfore vnder the shadowe of thy wynges do I reioyce |
[7]When I remember Thee upon my couch, and meditate on Thee in the night-watches. |
| [8](63:9) My soule cleaueth fast vnto thee: thy right hande hath vpholden me |
[8]For Thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of Thy wings do I rejoice. |
| [9](63:10) And they [that] seeke my soule to oppresse [it]: shall go vnder the earth |
[9]My soul cleaveth unto Thee; Thy right hand holdeth me fast. |
| [10](63:11) Euery one of them shalbe killed with the edge of a sworde: and they shalbe a portion for Foxes |
[10]But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the nethermost parts of the earth. |
| [11](63:12) But the king shal reioyce in the Lord, al they shal glory that sweare by him: for the mouth of all them that speake a lye, shalbe stopped |
[11]They shall be hurled to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for foxes. |
| 12[No verse] |
[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. |
