Discovery BoxPsalms 63:4-6 
Context63:4 For this reason 1 I will praise you while I live;
in your name I will lift up my hands. 2

My mouth joyfully praises you, 5
63:6 whenever 6 I remember you on my bed,
and think about you during the nighttime hours.

3 tn Heb “like fat and fatness.”
4 tn Or “me.”
5 tn Heb “and [with] lips of joy my mouth praises.”
6 tn The Hebrew term אִם (’im) is used here in the sense of “when; whenever,” as in Ps 78:34.
