Psalm 63
A psalm of David when he was in the Desert of Judah.
1God, you are my God.
I seek you with all my heart.
With all my strength I thirst for you
in this dry desert
where there isn’t any water.
2I have seen you in the sacred tent.
There I have seen your power and your glory.
3Your love is better than life.
So I will bring glory to you with my lips.
4I will praise you as long as I live.
I will call on your name when I lift up my hands in prayer.
5I will be as satisfied as if I had eaten the best food there is.
I will sing praise to you with my mouth.
6As I lie on my bed I remember you.
I think of you all night long.
7Because you have helped me,
I sing in the shadow of your wings.
8I hold on to you tightly.
Your powerful right hand takes good care of me.
9Those who want to kill me will be destroyed.
They will go down into the grave.
10They will be killed by swords.
They will become food for wild dogs.
11But the king will be filled with joy because of what God has done.
All those who make promises in God’s name will be able to brag.
But the mouths of liars will be shut.
第 63 篇
渴慕上帝
大衛在曠野時作的詩。
1上帝啊，你是我的上帝，
我迫切地尋求你！
在乾旱荒涼之地，
我的心渴慕你，渴慕你！
2我曾在你的聖所瞻仰你的榮面，
目睹你的權能和榮耀。
3你的慈愛比生命更寶貴，
我的嘴唇要讚美你。
4我一生都要讚美你，
奉你的名舉手禱告。
5我心滿意足，如享盛宴，
唱起歡快的歌讚美你。
6我躺在床上的時候思念你，
整夜地思想你。
7因為你是我的幫助，
我在你翅膀的蔭庇下歡歌。
8我的心依戀你，
你的右手扶持我。
9那些圖謀毀滅我的人必下到陰間。
10他們必喪身刀下，
成為豺狼的食物。
11但王要因上帝而歡欣，
凡信靠祂的人必歡喜快樂，
說謊者的口必被封住。
