Psalms Chapter 63
"A Psalm of David, when he was in the (a) wilderness of Judah." O God, thou [art] my God; early will I seek thee: my soul (b) thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
(a) That is, of Ziph (Sa1 23:14).
(b) Though he was both hungry and in great distress, yet he made God above all meat and drink.
To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] (c) I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
(c) In this misery I exercise myself in the contemplation of your power and glory, as if I were in the sanctuary.
My soul shall be satisfied as [with] (d) marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:
(d) The remembrance of your favour is more sweet to me than all the pleasures and dainties of the world.
My soul (e) followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
(e) He assures himself by the Spirit of God to have the gift of constancy.
(f) They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
(f) He prophecies of the destruction of Saul and they who take his part, whose bodies will not be buried but be devoured with wild beasts.
But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that (g) sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
(g) All who swear by God correctly or profess him will rejoice in this worthy king.
