Psalms 61

1 To the choirmaster - on a stringed instrument of David. Hear! O God cry of entreaty my pay attention to! prayer my.

For the Chief Musician; on a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto 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 end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: 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 thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 Let me sojourn in tent your forever let me take refuge in [the] shelter of wings your (Selah)

I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

5 For you O God you have listened to vows my you have given [the] possession of [those] fearing name your.

For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.

6 Days to [the] days of [the] king you will add years his [be] like a generation and a generation.

Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: his years shall be as many generations.

7 May he sit forever before God covenant loyalty and faithfulness appoint they will preserve him.

He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

8 Thus I will sing praises to name your for ever to pay I vows my day - day.

So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
