在困乏中對 神的渴慕

大衛的詩,是他在猶大曠野時作的。

63  神啊!你是我的 神,我要切切尋求你;

在乾旱、疲乏、無水之地,

我的心,我的身,

都渴想你,切慕你。

因此,我在聖所中瞻仰你,

為要見你的能力和榮耀。

因你的慈愛比生命更好,

我的嘴唇要頌讚你。

我要一生稱頌你,

我要奉你的名舉手禱告。

我的心滿足,就像飽享了骨髓肥油;

我要用歡樂的嘴唇讚美你。

我在床上記念你,

我整夜默想你。

因為你幫助了我,

我要在你翅膀的蔭下歡呼。

我心緊緊追隨你;

你的右手扶持我。

但那些尋索我、要殺我的人,

必下到地的深處。

10 他們必交在刀劍之下,

成了野狗的食物。

11 但王必因 神歡喜;

所有指著 神起誓的,都必可以誇耀;

說謊的人的口卻必被塞住。

63 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go 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 shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

Praise God Who Satisfies

A psalm of David. When he was in the Wilderness of Judah.(A)

63 God, you are my God; I eagerly seek you.
I thirst for you;
my body faints for you
in a land that is dry, desolate, and without water.(B)
So I gaze on you in the sanctuary
to see your strength and your glory.(C)

My lips will glorify you
because your faithful love is better than life.(D)
So I will bless you as long as I live;
at your name, I will lift up my hands.(E)
You satisfy me as with rich food;[a](F)
my mouth will praise you with joyful lips.(G)

When I think of you as I lie on my bed,
I meditate on you during the night watches(H)
because you are my helper;(I)
I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.(J)
I follow close to you;
your right hand holds on to me.(K)

But those who intend to destroy my life
will go into the depths of the earth.(L)
10 They will be given over to the power of the sword;(M)
they will become a meal for jackals.
11 But the king will rejoice in God;(N)
all who swear by him will boast,
for the mouths of liars will be shut.(O)
