For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.
2 From [the] end of the earth - to you I call when grows faint heart my on a rock [which] it is high more than me you will lead me.
From the ends of the earth I call out to You whenever my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 For you have been a refuge of me a tower of strength from before [the] enemy.
For You have been my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy.
4 Let me sojourn in tent your forever let me take refuge in [the] shelter of wings your (Selah)
Let me dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings.
5 For you O God you have listened to vows my you have given [the] possession of [those] fearing name your.
For You have heard my vows, O God; You have given me the inheritance reserved for those who fear Your name.
6 Days to [the] days of [the] king you will add years his [be] like a generation and a generation.
Increase the days of the king’s life; may his years span many generations.
7 May he sit forever before God covenant loyalty and faithfulness appoint they will preserve him.
May he sit enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness to guard him.
8 Thus I will sing praises to name your for ever to pay I vows my day - day.
Then I will ever sing praise to Your name and fulfill my vows day by day.
