Psalms 63

David, in the wilderness of Judah, thirsts for **Elohim** as in a dry land, recalls beholding His power and glory in the sanctuary, and declares His steadfast love better than life, praising Him with uplifted hands.[1][2] Satisfied as with marrow and fat, his soul clings to **Elohim** under the shadow of His wings, trusting the king's rejoicing in God while enemies face destruction.[2][3]
