渴慕上帝
大衛在曠野時作的詩。
63 上帝啊，你是我的上帝，
我迫切地尋求你！
在乾旱荒涼之地，
我的心渴慕你，渴慕你！
2 我曾在你的聖所瞻仰你的榮面，
目睹你的權能和榮耀。
3 你的慈愛比生命更寶貴，
我的嘴唇要讚美你。
4 我一生都要讚美你，
奉你的名舉手禱告。
5 我心滿意足，如享盛宴，
唱起歡快的歌讚美你。
6 我躺在床上的時候思念你，
整夜地思想你。
7 因為你是我的幫助，
我在你翅膀的蔭庇下歡歌。
8 我的心依戀你，
你的右手扶持我。
9 那些圖謀毀滅我的人必下到陰間。
10 他們必喪身刀下，
成為豺狼的食物。
11 但王要因上帝而歡欣，
凡信靠祂的人必歡喜快樂，
說謊者的口必被封住。

Joy in the Fellowship of God
A Psalm of David (A)when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
63 O God, You are my God;
Early will I seek You;
(B)My soul thirsts for You;
My flesh longs for You
In a dry and thirsty land
Where there is no water.
2 So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,
To see (C)Your power and Your glory.
3 (D)Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.
4 Thus I will bless You while I live;
I will (E)lift up my hands in Your name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with [a]marrow and [b]fatness,
And my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips.
6 When (F)I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches.
7 Because You have been my help,
Therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice.
8 My soul follows close behind You;
Your right hand upholds me.
9 But those who seek my life, to destroy it,
Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall [c]fall by the sword;
They shall be [d]a portion for jackals.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God;
(G)Everyone who swears by Him shall glory;
But the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.

Psalm 63
King James Version
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;
2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9 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.
