Psalms 61-65

Psalms 61

Psa 61:1 To the chief Musician upon Neg´i-nah, A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

Psa 61:2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto Thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Psa 61:3 For Thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

Psa 61:4 I will abide in Thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of Thy wings. Selah.

Psa 61:5 For Thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear Thy name.

Psa 61:6 Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.

Psa 61:7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

Psa 61:8 So will I sing praise unto Thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Psalms 62

Psa 62:1 To the chief Musician, to Je-du´thun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from Him cometh my salvation.

Psa 62:2 He only is my rock and my salvation; He is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

Psa 62:3 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.

Psa 62:4 They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

Psa 62:5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from Him.

Psa 62:6 He only is my rock and my salvation: He is my defence; I shall not be moved.

Psa 62:7 In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

Psa 62:8 Trust in Him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before Him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

Psa 62:9 Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.

Psa 62:10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

Psa 62:11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.

Psa 62:12 Also unto Thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for Thou renderest to every man according to his work.

Psalms 63

Psa 63:1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O 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;

Psa 63:2 To see Thy power and Thy glory, so as I have seen Thee in the sanctuary.

Psa 63:3 Because Thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise Thee.

Psa 63:4 Thus will I bless Thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in Thy name.

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

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

Psa 63:7 Because Thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of Thy wings will I rejoice.

Psa 63:8 My soul followeth hard after Thee: Thy right hand upholdeth me.

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

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

Psa 63:11 But 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.

Psalms 64

Psa 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Psa 64:10 The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and shall trust in Him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

Psalms 65

Psa 65:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm and Song of David. Praise waiteth for Thee, O God, in Si´-on: and unto Thee shall the vow be performed.

Psa 65:2 O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come.

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

Psa 65:4 Blessed 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.

Psa 65:5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt Thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:

Psa 65:6 Which by His strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:

Psa 65:7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.

Psa 65:8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at Thy tokens: Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

Psa 65:9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: Thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: Thou preparest them corn, when Thou hast so provided for it.

Psa 65:10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: Thou settlest the furrows thereof: Thou makest it soft with showers: Thou blessest the springing thereof.

Psa 65:11 Thou crownest the year with Thy goodness; and Thy paths drop fatness.

Psa 65:12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.

Psa 65:13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
