Psalmi 63
Biblia Sacra Vulgata
63 In finem. Psalmus David.
2 Exaudi, Deus, orationem meam cum deprecor; a timore inimici eripe animam meam.
3 Protexisti me a conventu malignantium, a multitudine operantium iniquitatem.
4 Quia exacuerunt ut gladium linguas suas; intenderunt arcum rem amaram,
5 ut sagittent in occultis immaculatum.
6 Subito sagittabunt eum, et non timebunt; firmaverunt sibi sermonem nequam. Narraverunt ut absconderent laqueos; dixerunt: Quis videbit eos?
7 Scrutati sunt iniquitates; defecerunt scrutantes scrutinio. Accedet homo ad cor altum,
8 et exaltabitur Deus. Sagittae parvulorum factae sunt plagae eorum,
9 et infirmatae sunt contra eos linguae eorum. Conturbati sunt omnes qui videbant eos,
10 et timuit omnis homo. Et annuntiaverunt opera Dei, et facta ejus intellexerunt.
11 Laetabitur justus in Domino, et sperabit in eo, et laudabuntur omnes recti corde.
Psalm 63
English Standard Version
My Soul Thirsts for You
A Psalm of David, (A)when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
63 O God, you are my God; (B)earnestly I seek you;
(C)my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in (D)a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
beholding (E)your power and glory.
3 Because your (F)steadfast love is better than life,
my lips will praise you.
4 So I will bless you (G)as long as I live;
in your (H)name I will (I)lift up my hands.
5 My soul will be (J)satisfied as with fat and rich food,
and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,
6 when I remember you (K)upon my bed,
and meditate on you in (L)the watches of the night;
7 for you have been my help,
and in (M)the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.
8 My soul (N)clings to you;
your right hand (O)upholds me.
9 But those who seek to destroy my life
(P)shall go down into (Q)the depths of the earth;
10 they shall be given over to the power of the sword;
they shall be a portion for jackals.
11 But (R)the king shall rejoice in God;
all who (S)swear by him shall exult,
(T)for the mouths of (U)liars will be stopped.
