63:5My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

63:6And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.

63:6When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

63:7Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

63:7I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.

63:8For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.

63:8My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

63:9In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

63:9But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

63:10They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

63:10But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.

63:11But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

63:11Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?

63:12That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?

63:13That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?

63:14As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.

63:15Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained?

63:16Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.

63:17O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, and hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.

63:18The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.

63:19We are thine: thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.

64:1(To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.) Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

64:1Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,

64:2Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:

64:2As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!

64:3Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

64:3When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.

64:4For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

64:4That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

64:5They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

64:5Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.

64:6But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

64:6They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

64:7And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.

64:7But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

64:8But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

64:8So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

64:9And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.

64:9Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.

64:10The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

64:10Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

64:11Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.

64:12Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?

65:1I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.

65:1(To the chief Musician, A Psalm and Song of David.) Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.

65:2I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;

65:2O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.

65:3A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;

65:3Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.

65:4Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.
