< Psalms 61 >

1 To the chief Musician upon Neginah, [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
Hear my cry, O God. Attend to my prayer.
2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock [that] is higher than I.
From the end of the earth I will call to thee when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, [and] a strong tower from the enemy.
For thou have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
I will dwell in thy tabernacle forever. I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.
For thou, O God, have heard my vows. Thou have given me the heritage of those who fear thy name.
6 Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: [and] his years as many generations.
Thou will prolong the king's life. His years shall be as many generations.
7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, [which] may preserve him.
He shall abide before God forever. O prepare loving kindness and truth that they may preserve him.
8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
So I will sing praise to thy name forever, that I may daily perform my vows.
