Psalm 63
ESV Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
English Standard VersionInternational Standard Version
1O God, you are my God; earnestly 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.1God, you are my God! I will fervently seek you. My soul thirsts for you; my flesh longs for you in a dry, weary, and parched land.
2So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory.2So I have looked for you in the sanctuary, to behold your power and glory.
3Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.3Because your gracious love is better than life itself, my lips will praise you.
4So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.4So I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in your name.
5My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,5Just as I am satisfied with the choicest of foods, so my lips will praise you joyfully.
6when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night;6When I think of you in bed, I will meditate on you in the night watches.
7for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.7For you have been my strength, and in the shadow of your wings I will shout for joy.
8My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.8My soul clings to you, even as your right hand supports me.
9But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into the depths of the earth;9But as for those who seek to destroy me, they will go down to the depths of the earth;
10they shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for jackals.10May they be given over to the power of the sword; may they become carrion for jackals.
11But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall exult, for the mouths of liars will be stopped.11But as for the king, he will rejoice in God. Indeed, everyone who swears by God will exult, because the mouths of liars will be silenced.
