Salmos 61:1 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 61:1

Hear my cry, O God
Being in distress; and which was vocally expressed with great fervency and importunity;

attend unto my prayer;
which psalm was made by him, and not for him; inwrought in his heart by the Spirit of God, and put up by him with a true heart and full assurance of faith, and related to his own case in particular. Aben Ezra thinks that the former word designs public prayer, vocally and openly expressed; and that this intends prayer in the heart, or mental prayer; both the Lord hears and attends unto, and is here requested; which is marvellous grace and condescension in him.

Salmos 61:1 In-Context

1 Ouve, ó Deus, o meu clamor; atende � minha oração.

2 Desde a extremidade da terra clamo a ti, estando abatido o meu coração; leva-me para a rocha que é mais alta do que eu.

3 Pois tu és o meu refúgio, uma torre forte contra o inimigo.

4 Deixa-me habitar no teu tabernáculo para sempre; dá que me abrigue no esconderijo das tuas asas.

5 Pois tu, ó Deus, ouviste os meus votos; deste-me a herança dos que temem o teu nome.
