< Psalms 61 >
1 To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.
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!
2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me.
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!
3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.
因為你作過我的避難所, 作過我的堅固臺,脫離仇敵。
4 I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
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)
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.
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。
6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations.
你要加添王的壽數; 他的年歲必存到世世。
7 He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
他必永遠坐在上帝面前; 願你預備慈愛和誠實保佑他!
8 So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.
這樣,我要歌頌你的名,直到永遠, 好天天還我所許的願。
