‏ Psalms 61

For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.


1
Hear my cry, God.

Listen to my prayer.


2
From the end of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed.

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.


3
For you have been a refuge for me,

a strong tower from the enemy.


4
I will dwell in your tent forever.

I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings.



Selah.




5
For you, God, have heard my vows.

You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.


6
You will prolong the king’s life;

his years shall be for generations.


7
He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever.

Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.


8
So I will sing praise to your name forever,

that I may fulfill my vows daily.
