詩篇 61

1 達味作，交與樂官，和以絃樂。 天主，求你俯聽我的哀號，求你細聽我的祈禱。

For the end, amongst the Hymns of David. O God, listen to my petition; attend to my prayer.

2 當我心靈憂戚時，我由地極呼號你，求你領我上那崇高磐石，使我安息。

From the ends of the earth have I cried to you, when my heart was in trouble: you lifted me up on a rock you did guide me:

3 因為你是我的避難所，是我抗敵的堅固碉堡。

because you were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.

4 願我常在你的帳幕內寄住，在你的翼護下隱居！

I will dwell in your tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of your wings. (Pause)

5 天主，你果真滿全了我的志願，賜給了我敬愛你名者的財產。

For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them that fear your name.

6 願你使君王的壽命日增，並使他的年歲萬世無窮!

You shall add days to the days of the king; [you shall lengthen] his years to all generations.

7 願他在天主前為王，直至永遠，求你廣施慈愛忠誠，使他安全！

He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?

8 因此，我要常常歌讚你的名號，為能使我日日償還我的誓約。

So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
