Psalm 63
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Psalm 63
Comfort and Assurance in God’s Presence
A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah.
1 O God, you are my God, I seek you,
my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
beholding your power and glory.
3 Because your steadfast love is better than life,
my lips will praise you.
4 So I will bless you as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands and call on your name.
5 My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast,[a]
and my mouth praises you with joyful lips
6 when I think of you on my bed,
and meditate on you in the watches of the night;
7 for you have been my help,
and in the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.
8 My soul clings to you;
your right hand upholds me.
9 But those who seek to destroy my life
shall go down into the depths of the earth;
10 they shall be given over to the power of the sword,
they shall be prey for jackals.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God;
all who swear by him shall exult,
for the mouths of liars will be stopped.

Psalm 63
Amplified Bible
The Thirsting Soul Satisfied in God.
A Psalm of David; when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
63 O God, You are my God; with deepest longing I will seek You;
My [a]soul [my life, my very self] thirsts for You, my flesh longs and sighs for You,
In a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2
So I have gazed upon You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and Your glory.(A)
3
Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.
4
So will I bless You as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands in Your name.
5
My [b]soul [my life, my very self] is satisfied as with marrow and fatness,
And my mouth offers praises [to You] with joyful lips.
6
When I remember You on my bed,
I meditate and thoughtfully focus on You in the night watches,
7
For You have been my help,
And in the shadow of Your wings [where I am always protected] I sing for joy.
8
My [c]soul [my life, my very self] clings to You;
Your right hand upholds me.
9
But those who seek my life to destroy it
Will [be destroyed and] go into the depths of the earth [into the underworld].
10
They will be given over to the power of the sword;
They will be a prey for foxes.
11
But the king will rejoice in God;
Everyone who swears by Him [honoring the true God, acknowledging His authority and majesty] will glory,
For the mouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.

Священное Писание (Восточный перевод), версия для Таджикистана
Песнь 63
1 Дирижёру хора. Песнь Довуда.
2 Всевышний, услышь мой голос, когда я возношу жалобы мои;
сохрани мою жизнь от угроз врага.
3 Сокрой меня от замыслов нечестивых,
от шумной толпы злодеев.
4 Они заострили свои языки, как мечи,
и нацелили свои слова, как смертоносные стрелы.
5 Они стреляют из засады в невинного,
стреляют в него неожиданно и без страха.
6 Они воодушевляют друг друга на злые замыслы
и совещаются, чтобы спрятать свои сети,
говоря: «Кто увидит их[a]?»
7 Они замышляют несправедливость и говорят:
«Мы разработали идеальный план!»
Истинно, коварны разум и сердце человека.
8 Но Всевышний пустит в них стрелы;
внезапно они будут поражены.
9 Он обратит их языки против них самих
и приведёт их к гибели;
все, кто увидит их,
будут с презрением качать своими головами.
10 Все люди устрашатся;
они будут возвещать дела Всевышнего
и размышлять о том, что Он сделал.
11 Пусть праведные возрадуются о Вечном
и найдут в Нём убежище;
пусть все правые сердцем восславят Его.
