Psalms 61

1 TO THE OVERSEER. ON STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. BY DAVID. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to 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 I call to You from the end of the land, In the feebleness of my heart, You lead me into a rock 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 You have been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

因為你是我的避難所，是我抗敵的堅固碉堡。

4 I sojourn in Your tent for all ages, I trust in the secret place of Your wings. (Selah)

願我常在你的帳幕內寄住，在你的翼護下隱居！

5 For You, O God, have listened to my vows, You have appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Your 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 You add days to the days of the king, His years as generation and generation.

願你使君王的壽命日增，並使他的年歲萬世無窮!

7 He dwells before God for all time, Appoint kindness and truth—they keep 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 I praise Your Name forever, When I pay my vows day by day!

因此，我要常常歌讚你的名號，為能使我日日償還我的誓約。
