Psalm 63
CSB Parallel ESV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Christian Standard BibleEnglish Standard Version
1God, you are my God; I eagerly seek you. I thirst for you; my body faints for you in a land that is dry, desolate, and without water.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.
2So I gaze on you in the sanctuary to see your strength and your glory.2So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory.
3My lips will glorify you because your faithful love is better than life.3Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.
4So I will bless you as long as I live; at your name, I will lift up my hands.4So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.
5You satisfy me as with rich food; my mouth will praise you with joyful lips.5My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,
6When I think of you as I lie on my bed, I meditate on you during the night watches6when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night;
7because you are my helper; I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.7for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.
8I follow close to you; your right hand holds on to me.8My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
9But those who intend to destroy my life will go into the depths of the earth.9But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into the depths of the earth;
10They will be given over to the power of the sword; they will become a meal for jackals.10they shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for jackals.
11But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by him will boast, for the mouths of liars will be shut.11But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall exult, for the mouths of liars will be stopped.
