Psalms 61

1 For the Chief Musician; on a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer.

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。

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

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。

3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

因為你是我的避難所，是我抗敵的堅固碉堡。

4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

願我常在你的帳幕內寄住，在你的翼護下隱居！

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.

天主，你果真滿全了我的志願，賜給了我敬愛你名者的財產。

6 Thou wilt prolong the king’s life; His years shall be as many generations.

願你使君王的壽命日增，並使他的年歲萬世無窮!

7 He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

願他在天主前為王，直至永遠，求你廣施慈愛忠誠，使他安全！

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.

因此，我要常常歌讚你的名號，為能使我日日償還我的誓約。
