Psalm 63 | English Standard Version

My Soul Thirsts for You

1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

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

3 Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

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

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

6 when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night;

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

8 My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.

9 But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into 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 the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall exult, for the mouths of liars will be stopped.

الكتاب المقدس

مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ عِنْدَمَا كَانَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ يَهُوذَا

1 يَا اللهُ أَنْتَ إِلَهِي وَإِيَّاكَ أَطْلُبُ بَاكِراً. عَطِشَتْ إِلَيْكَ نَفْسِي وَيَشْتَاقُ إِلَيْكَ جِسْمِي فِي أَرْضٍ قَاحِلَةٍ يَابِسَةٍ لَا مَاءَ فِيهَا،

2 حَتَّى أُعَايِنَ قُدْرَتَكَ وَمَجْدَكَ، مِثْلَمَا رَأَيْتُكَ فِي مَوْضِعِكَ الْمُقَدَّسِ.

3 لأَنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْحَيَاةِ، لِذَلِكَ تُسَبِّحُكَ شَفَتَايَ.

4 أَحْمَدُكَ عَلَى بَرَكَاتِكَ مَدَى حَيَاتِي، وَبِاسْمِكَ أَرْفَعُ يَدَيَّ مُبْتَهِلاً.

5 تَشْبَعُ نَفْسِي كَأَنَّهَا أَكَلَتْ مِنَ الشَّحْمِ وَالدَّسَمِ، وَيُسَبِّحُكَ فَمِي بِشَفَتَيْنِ مُبْتَهِجَتَيْنِ

6 أَذْكُرُكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِي وَأَتَأَمَّلُ فِيكَ فِي أَثْنَاءِ اللَّيْلِ.

7 لأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَوْناً لِي، فَإِنِّي فِي ظِلِّ جَنَاحَيْكَ أُرَنِّمُ مُبْتَهِجاً.

8 تَتَعَلَّقُ نَفْسِي بِكَ. يَمِينُكَ تَدْعَمُنِي

9 أَمَّا طَالِبُو نَفْسِي لِيُهْلِكُوهَا فَسَيَدْخُلُونَ أَسْفَلَ أَعْمَاقِ الأَرْضِ.

10 يُسَلَّمُونَ إِلَى حَدِّ السَّيْفِ وَيَضْحَوْنَ مَأْكَلاً لِبَنَاتِ آوَى.

11 أَمَّا الْمَلِكُ فَيَفْرَحُ بِاللهِ وَيَفْتَخِرُ بِهِ كُلُّ مَنْ يُقْسِمُ (صَادِقاً) لأَنَّ أَفْوَاهَ النَّاطِقِينَ بِالْكَذِبِ تُسَدُّ.
