Salmo 63

El alma sedienta se satisface en Dios

Salmo de David, cuando estaba en el desierto de Judá.

63 Oh Dios, Tú eres mi Dios(A); te buscaré con afán.
Mi alma tiene sed de Ti, mi carne te anhela(B)
Cual tierra seca y árida donde no hay agua(C).
Así te contemplaba en el santuario,
Para ver Tu poder y Tu gloria(D).
Porque Tu misericordia es mejor que la vida(E),
Mis labios te alabarán.
Así te bendeciré mientras viva(F),
En Tu nombre alzaré mis manos(G).
Como con médula y grasa está saciada(H) mi alma;
Y con labios jubilosos te alaba mi boca(I).
¶Cuando en mi lecho me acuerdo de Ti(J),
En Ti medito durante las vigilias de la noche(K).
Porque Tú has sido mi ayuda(L),
Y a la sombra de Tus alas(M) canto gozoso.
A Ti se aferra mi alma(N);
Tu diestra me sostiene(O).
¶Pero los que buscan mi vida para destruirla(P),
Caerán a las profundidades de la tierra(Q).
10 Serán entregados al poder de la espada(R);
Presa serán de las zorras(S).
11 Pero el rey se regocijará en Dios(T);
Y todo el que por Él jura se gloriará(U),
Porque la boca de los que dicen mentiras será cerrada(V).

Joy in the Fellowship of God

A Psalm of David (A)when he was in the wilderness of Judah.

63 O God, You are my God;
Early will I seek You;
(B)My soul thirsts for You;
My flesh longs for You
In a dry and thirsty land
Where there is no water.
So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,
To see (C)Your power and Your glory.

(D)Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.
Thus I will bless You while I live;
I will (E)lift up my hands in Your name.
My soul shall be satisfied as with [a]marrow and [b]fatness,
And my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips.

When (F)I remember You on my bed,
I meditate on You in the night watches.
Because You have been my help,
Therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice.
My soul follows close behind You;
Your right hand upholds me.

But those who seek my life, to destroy it,
Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall [c]fall by the sword;
They shall be [d]a portion for jackals.

11 But the king shall rejoice in God;
(G)Everyone who swears by Him shall glory;
But the mouth of those who speak lies shall be stopped.

Psalm 63[a]

A psalm of David. When he was in the Desert of Judah.

You, God, are my God,

I thirst for you,(A)
    my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
    where there is no water.(B)

I have seen you in the sanctuary(C)
    and beheld your power and your glory.(D)
Because your love is better than life,(E)
    my lips will glorify you.
I will praise you as long as I live,(F)
    and in your name I will lift up my hands.(G)
I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;(H)
    with singing lips my mouth will praise you.

On my bed I remember you;
    I think of you through the watches of the night.(I)
Because you are my help,(J)
    I sing in the shadow of your wings.(K)
I cling to you;(L)
    your right hand upholds me.(M)
