Psalms 63:2-11

²To see thy power and thy glory, as I have beheld thee in the sanctuary;

³For thy loving-kindness is better than life: my lips shall praise thee.

⁴So will I bless thee while I live; I will lift up my hands in thy name.

⁵My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.

⁶When I remember thee upon my bed, I meditate on thee in the night-watches:

⁷For thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing for joy.

⁸My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

⁹But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth;

¹⁰They shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be the portion of foxes.

¹¹But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: for the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
