1 <V 62:1>A Psalm of David, when he was in the desert of Idumea. <V 62:2>O God, my God: to you, I keep vigil until first light. For you, my soul has thirsted, to you my body, in so many ways. O 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. A psalm of David. When he was in the Desert of Judah. You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.
2 <V 62:3>By a deserted land, both inaccessible and waterless, so I have appeared in the sanctuary before you, in order to behold your virtue and your glory. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.
3 <V 62:4>For your mercy is better than life itself. It is you my lips will praise. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.
4 <V 62:5>So will I bless you in my life, and I will lift up my hands in your name. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.
5 <V 62:6>Let my soul be filled, as if with marrow and fatness; and my mouth will give praise with exultant lips. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
6 <V 62:7>When I have remembered you on my bed in the morning, I will meditate on you. when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night.
7 <V 62:8>For you have been my helper. And I will exult under the cover of your wings. for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.
8 <V 62:9>My soul has clung close to you. Your right hand has supported me. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me. I cling to you; your right hand upholds me.
9 <V 62:10>Truly, these ones have sought my soul in vain. They will enter into the lower parts of the earth. But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into the depths of the earth; Those who want to kill me will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth.
10 <V 62:11>They will be delivered into the hand of the sword. They will be the portions of foxes. they shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be a portion for jackals. They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals.
11 <V 62:12>Truly, the king will rejoice in God: all those who swear by him will be praised, because the mouth of those who speak iniquity has been blocked. But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall exult, for the mouths of liars will be stopped. But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God will glory in him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced.
