< Psalms 61 >

1 To the Chief Musician. Upon a Stringed Instrument. David’s. Hear, O God, my loud cry, Attend unto 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 From the end of the earth, unto thee do I cry, When my heart fainteth away, Unto a rock that is higher than I, wilt thou lead me.
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 thou hast been, A Refuge to me, A Tower of Strength, from the face of the foe.
因為你是我的避難所,是我抗敵的堅固碉堡。
4 I would be a guest in thy tent to the ages, I would seek refuge in the concealment of thy wings. (Selah)
願我常在你的帳幕內寄住,在你的翼護下隱居!
5 For, thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast granted a possession, unto them who revere thy 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 Days—unto the days of the king, wilt thou add. His years, as of generation after generation:
願你使君王的壽命日增,並使他的年歲萬世無窮!
7 Let him retain his seat age-abidingly before God, Appoint that, lovingkindness and faithfulness, my watch over 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, will I sing thy Name unto futurity, Paying 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。
