詩篇 61

1 大衛的詩，交與伶長。用絲弦的樂器。 上帝啊，求你聽我的呼求， 側耳聽我的禱告！

To the Chief Musician. Upon a Stringed Instrument. David’s. Hear, O God, my loud cry, Attend unto my prayer:

2 我心裏發昏的時候， 我要從地極求告你。 求你領我到那比我更高的磐石！

From the end of the earth, unto thee do I cry, When my heart fainteth away, Unto a rock that is higher than I, wilt thou lead me.

3 因為你作過我的避難所， 作過我的堅固臺，脫離仇敵。

For thou hast been, A Refuge to me, A Tower of Strength, from the face of the foe.

4 我要永遠住在你的帳幕裏！ 我要投靠在你翅膀下的隱密處！ (細拉)

I would be a guest in thy tent to the ages, I would seek refuge in the concealment of thy wings. (Selah)

5 上帝啊，你原是聽了我所許的願； 你將產業賜給敬畏你名的人。

For, thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast granted a possession, unto them who revere thy Name.

6 你要加添王的壽數； 他的年歲必存到世世。

Days—unto the days of the king, wilt thou add. His years, as of generation after generation:

7 他必永遠坐在上帝面前； 願你預備慈愛和誠實保佑他！

Let him retain his seat age-abidingly before God, Appoint that, lovingkindness and faithfulness, my watch over him!

8 這樣，我要歌頌你的名，直到永遠， 好天天還我所許的願。

So, will I sing thy Name unto futurity, Paying my vows, day by day.
