<A Psalm. Of David. When he was in the waste land of Judah.>\
2
\63:1\O God, you are my God; early will I make my search for you: my soul is dry for need of you, my flesh is wasted with desire for you, as a dry and burning land where no water is;
3
\63:2\To see your power and your glory, as I have seen you in the holy place.
4
\63:3\Because your mercy is better than life, my lips will give you praise.
5
\63:4\So will I go on blessing you all my life, lifting up my hands in your name.
6
\63:5\My soul will be comforted, as with good food; and my mouth will give you praise with songs of joy;
7
\63:6\When the memory of you comes to me on my bed, and when I give thought to you in the night-time.
8
\63:7\Because you have been my help, I will have joy in the shade of your wings.
9
\63:8\My soul keeps ever near you: your right hand is my support.
10
\63:9\But those whose desire is my soul's destruction will go down to the lower parts of the earth.
11
\63:10\They will be cut off by the sword; they will be food for foxes.
12
\63:11\But the king will have joy in God; everyone who takes an oath by him will have cause for pride; but the false mouth will be stopped.
