Psalms 61

1 Unto the end. With hymns, of David. O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.

לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ עַֽל־נְגִינַת לְדָוִֽד׃ שִׁמְעָה אֱלֹהִים רִנָּתִי הַקְשִׁיבָה תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃

2 I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,

מִקְצֵה הָאָרֶץ ׀ אֵלֶיךָ אֶקְרָא בַּעֲטֹף לִבִּי בְּצוּר־יָרוּם מִמֶּנִּי תַנְחֵֽנִי׃

3 for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.

כִּֽי־הָיִיתָ מַחְסֶה לִי מִגְדַּל־עֹז מִפְּנֵי אוֹיֵֽב׃

4 I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.

אָגוּרָה בְאׇהׇלְךָ עוֹלָמִים אֶחֱסֶה בְסֵתֶר כְּנָפֶיךָ סֶּֽלָה׃

5 For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

כִּֽי־אַתָּה אֱלֹהִים שָׁמַעְתָּ לִנְדָרָי נָתַתָּ יְרֻשַּׁת יִרְאֵי שְׁמֶֽךָ׃

6 You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.

יָמִים עַל־יְמֵי־מֶלֶךְ תּוֹסִיף שְׁנוֹתָיו כְּמוֹ־דֹר וָדֹֽר׃

7 He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?

יֵשֵׁב עוֹלָם לִפְנֵי אֱלֹהִים חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶת מַן יִנְצְרֻֽהוּ׃

8 So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.

כֵּן אֲזַמְּרָה שִׁמְךָ לָעַד לְֽשַׁלְּמִי נְדָרַי יוֹם ׀ יֽוֹם׃
