Psalm 61

RSV

NIV

1 To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer;
1 Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.
2 from the end of the earth I call to thee, when my heart is faint. Lead thou me to the rock that is higher than I;
2 From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 for thou art my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy.
3 For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe.
4 Let me dwell in thy tent for ever! Oh to be safe under the shelter of thy wings! [Selah]
4 I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows, thou hast given me the heritage of those who fear thy name.
5 For you, God, have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
6 Prolong the life of the king; may his years endure to all generations!
6 Increase the days of the king’s life, his years for many generations.
7 May he be enthroned for ever before God; bid steadfast love and faithfulness watch over him!
7 May he be enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him.
8 So will I ever sing praises to thy name, as I pay my vows day after day.
8 Then I will ever sing in praise of your name and fulfill my vows day after day.
