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 OYE, oh Dios, mi clamor; A mi oración atiende.
2 Desde el cabo de la tierra clamaré á ti, cuando mi corazón desmayare: A la peña más alta que yo me conduzcas.
3 Porque tú has sido mi refugio, Y torre de fortaleza delante del enemigo.
4 Yo habitaré en tu tabernáculo para siempre: Estaré seguro bajo la cubierta de tus alas.
5 Porque tú, oh Dios, has oído mis votos, Has dado heredad á los que temen tu nombre.
