King James Version (1611 Edition)
Psalms 63
1 [A Psalme of Dauid, when hee was in the wildernesse of Iudah.] O God, thou art my God, earely will I seeke thee: my soule thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee, in a drie and thirstie lande, where no water is: 2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I haue seen thee in the Sanctuary.
3 Because thy louing kindnes is better then life: my lips shal praise thee. 4 Thus will I blesse thee, while I liue: I will lift vp my handes in thy Name. 5 My soule shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatnesse: and my mouth shall praise thee with ioyfull lips: 6 When I remember thee vpon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast bene my helpe; therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I reioyce. 8 My soule followeth hard after thee: thy right hand vpholdeth me. 9 But those that seeke my soule to destroy it, shall goe into the lower parts of the earth. 10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes. 11 But the King shal reioyce in God; euery one that sweareth by him shall glorie: but the mouth of them that speake lies, shall be stopped.
