Psalms 61

1 To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. -- By David. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.

1 Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.

2 From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost lead me.

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 hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

3 For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe.

4 I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place 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 hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.

5 For you, God, have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6 Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as generation and generation.

6 Increase the days of the king’s life, his years for many generations.

7 He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth appoint -- they keep him.

7 May he be enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him.

8 So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by day!

8 Then I will ever sing in praise of your name and fulfill my vows day after day.
