< Psalms 61 >
1 To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.
ああ神よねがはくはわが哭聲をききたまへ わが祈にみこころをとめたまへ
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.
わが心くづほるるとき地のはてより汝をよばん なんぢ我をみちびきてわが及びがたきほどの高き磐にのぼらせたまへ
3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.
なんぢはわが避所われを仇よりのがれしむる堅固なる櫓なればなり
4 I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
われ永遠になんぢの帷幄にすまはん我なんぢの翼の下にのがれん (セラ)
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.
神よなんぢはわがもろもろの誓をきき名をおそるるものにたまふ嗣業をわれにあたへたまへり
6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations.
なんぢは王の生命をのばし その年を幾代にもいたらせたまはん
7 He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
王はとこしへに神のみまへにとどまらん ねがはくは仁慈と眞實とをそなへて彼をまもりたまへ
8 So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.
さらば我とこしへに名をほめうたひて日ごとにわがもろもろの誓をつくのひ果さん
