Глава 63

1. ¶ O GOD, thou art my God; on thee I wait; my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee as in a dry and thirsty land where no water is.
2. As, in purity, I have seen thee, so may I see thy power and thy glory.
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 enriched as with cream and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.
6. I remember thee upon my bed and I meditate on thee in the night watches.
7. ¶ Because thou hast been my helper, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I glory.
8. My soul follows hard after thee; thy right hand upholds 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 man that swears by him shall glory; but the mouths of those who speak lies shall be stopped.
