Psalm 63

		63:0  A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of 		Judah.

		63:1  O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you;
			    my soul thirsts for you; my flesh yearns for you
			    as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

		63:2  Thus I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
			    beholding your power and glory.

		63:3  Because your lovingkindness is better than life,
			    my lips will praise you.	

		63:4  So I will bless you as long as I live;
		         in your name I will lift up my hands.

		63:5  My self will be satisfied as with fat and rich food,
			    and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,

		63:6  when I remember you upon my bed, in the night 				    watches, I think about you.

		63:7  for you have been my help,
			    and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.

		63:8  My self [nephesh] clings to you,   
		         your right hand upholds me.

		63:9  But those who seek to destroy my life
			       shall go down into the depths of the earth;

		63:10 they shall be given over to the power of the sword;
				they shall be a portion for jackals.

		63:11 But the king shall rejoice in God;
			     all who swear by him shall boast,
			     for the mouths of those who speak lies will be shut 				 up.
