< Psalmorum 61 >
1 in finem in hymnis David exaudi Deus deprecationem meam intende orationi meae
Hear my cry, O God. Attend to my prayer.
2 a finibus terrae ad te clamavi dum anxiaretur cor meum in petra exaltasti me deduxisti me
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 quia factus es spes mea turris fortitudinis a facie inimici
For thou have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
4 inhabitabo in tabernaculo tuo in saecula protegar in velamento alarum tuarum diapsalma
I will dwell in thy tabernacle forever. I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
5 quoniam tu Deus meus exaudisti orationem meam dedisti hereditatem timentibus nomen tuum
For thou, O God, have heard my vows. Thou have given me the heritage of those who fear thy name.
6 dies super dies regis adicies annos eius usque in diem generationis et generationis
Thou will prolong the king's life. His years shall be as many generations.
7 permanet in aeternum in conspectu Dei misericordiam et veritatem quis requiret eius
He shall abide before God forever. O prepare loving kindness and truth that they may preserve him.
8 sic psalmum dicam nomini tuo in saeculum saeculi ut reddam vota mea de die in diem
So I will sing praise to thy name forever, that I may daily perform my vows.
