Psalms • Chapter 63

1 A psalm of David, when he was in the Judean desert. God (Elohim), you are my God (Elohim), I eagerly look for you. I am thirsty for you; all that I am longs for you in this dry, weary, waterless land. 2 I see you in the Temple; I watch your power and glory. 3 Your trustworthy love is better than life itself; I will praise you. 4 I will thank you as long as I live; I lift up my hands as I celebrate your wonderful character. 5 You satisfy me more than the richest food; I will praise you with joyful songs. 6 For you are the one who helps me; I sing happily from under your wings. 7 I hold on to you; your strong arms lift me up. 8 They will be killed by the sword; they will become food for jackals. 9 But the king will be happy for what God (Elohim) has done. All who follow God (Elohim) will praise him, but those who tell lies will be silenced.
