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

1 God, hear my cry; pay attention 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 I call to You from the ends of the earth when my heart is without strength. Lead me to a rock that is high above me,

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

3 for You have been a refuge for me, a strong tower in the face of the enemy.

4 I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place of Thy wings. Selah.

4 I will live in Your tent forever and take refuge under the shelter of Your wings. Selah

5 For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.

5 God, You have heard my vows; You have given a heritage to those who fear Your name.

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

6 Add days to the king's life; may his years span many generations.

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

7 May he sit enthroned before God forever; appoint faithful love and truth to guard him.

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

8 Then I will continually sing of Your name, fulfilling my vows day by day.
