Psalm 63
1. David's thirst for God
4. His manner of blessing God
9. His confidence of his enemies' destruction, and his own safety














(5) Satisfied.--This image of a banquet, which repeats itself so frequently in Scripture, need not be connected with the sacrificial feasts.

Verse 5. - My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness. The "marrow and fatness" of the sacrificial feasts caused a delight to worshippers, which was no doubt partly sensuous. The memory of them occurs to the psalmist, but only as the shadow and emblem of the far deeper joy and satisfaction which he finds in the spiritual worship of the Most High, and especially in the offering of praise and thanksgiving. And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips; or, while my mouth praiseth thee (see the Prayer book Version, which brings out the true sense).
