Salmos 63

Douay-Rheims Bible

1Unto the end, a psalm for David.

2Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee: deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.

3Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.

4For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,

5To shoot in secret the undefiled.

6They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: they are resolute in wickedness. They have talked of hiding snares; they have said: Who shall see them?

7They have searched after iniquities: they have failed in their search. Man shall come to a deep heart:

8And God shall be exalted. The arrows of children are their wounds:

9And their tongues against them are made weak. All that saw them were troubled;

10And every man was afraid. And they declared the works of God: and understood his doings.

11The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: and all the upright in heart shall be praised.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Salmo de David, estando en el desierto de Judá. DIOS, Dios mío eres tú: levantaréme á ti de mañana: mi alma tiene sed de ti, mi carne te desea, en tierra de sequedad y transida sin aguas;

2Para ver tu fortaleza y tu gloria, así como te he mirado en el santuario.

3Porque mejor es tu misericordia que la vida: mis labios te alabarán.

4Así te bendeciré en mi vida: en tu nombre alzaré mis manos.

5Como de meollo y de grosura será saciada mi alma; y con labios de júbilo te alabará mi boca,

6Cuando me acordaré de ti en mi lecho, cuando meditaré de ti en las velas de la noche.

7Porque has sido mi socorro; y así en la sombra de tus alas me regocijaré.

8Está mi alma apegada á ti: tu diestra me ha sostenido.

9Mas los que para destrucción buscaron mi alma, caerán en los sitios bajos de la tierra.

10Destruiránlos á filo de espada; serán porción de las zorras.

11Empero el rey se alegrará en Dios; será alabado cualquiera que por él jura: porque la boca de los que hablan mentira, será cerrada.

King James Version

1O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

2To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

3Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

4Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

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

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

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

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

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.

World English Bible

1God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.

2So I have seen you in the sanctuary, watching your power and your glory.

3Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

4So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name.

5My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,

6when I remember you on my bed, and think about you in the night watches.

7For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.

8My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.

9But those who 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 jackal food.

11But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him will praise him, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.
