诗篇 63
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
渴慕上帝
大卫在旷野时作的诗。
63 上帝啊，你是我的上帝，
我迫切地寻求你！
在干旱荒凉之地，
我的心渴慕你，渴慕你！
2 我曾在你的圣所瞻仰你的荣面，
目睹你的权能和荣耀。
3 你的慈爱比生命更宝贵，
我的嘴唇要赞美你。
4 我一生都要赞美你，
奉你的名举手祷告。
5 我心满意足，如享盛宴，
唱起欢快的歌赞美你。
6 我躺在床上的时候思念你，
整夜地思想你。
7 因为你是我的帮助，
我在你翅膀的荫庇下欢歌。
8 我的心依恋你，
你的右手扶持我。
9 那些图谋毁灭我的人必下到阴间。
10 他们必丧身刀下，
成为豺狼的食物。
11 但王要因上帝而欢欣，
凡信靠祂的人必欢喜快乐，
说谎者的口必被封住。

Psalm 63
Expanded Bible
Wishing to Be Near God
A psalm of David when he was in the ·desert [wilderness] of Judah [C fleeing from a jealous Saul; 1 Sam. 21–31].
63 God, you are my God.
I ·search for [am intent on] you.
I thirst for you [42:1–2]
·like someone [or my flesh yearns for you] in a dry, ·empty [exhausted; weary] land
where there is no water.
2 I have seen you in ·the Temple [L the Holy Place; or holiness]
and have seen your strength and glory.
3 Because your ·love [loyalty] is better than life,
·I [L My lips] will praise you.
4 I will ·praise [bless] you ·as long as I live [L with my life].
I will lift up my hands in your name [C in prayer].
5 I will be ·content as if I had eaten the best foods [L satisfied as with fat and fatness].
My lips will sing, and my mouth will praise you.
6 I remember you while I’m lying in bed;
I ·think about [meditate on] you through the watches of the night [C the night was divided into four watches of three hours each].
7 You are my help.
·Because of your protection [L In the shadow of your wings; C an image of compassion or perhaps a reference to the cherubim whose wings covered the Ark of the Covenant; Ex. 25:20], I sing.
8 I ·stay close [cling] to you;
·you support me with your right hand [L your right hand sustains me].
9 ·Some people are trying to kill me [L They seek my life for ruin],
but they will go down to the ·grave [L underbelly of the earth].
10 They will be ·killed with swords [L handed over to the sword]
and ·eaten by wild dogs [L be the prey of jackals].
11 But the king will rejoice in his God.
All who ·make promises in his name [L swear by him] will praise him,
but the mouths of liars will be shut.
