1(61) For the end, among the Hymns of David. O God, listen to my petition; attend to my prayer.
1Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
2From the ends of the earth have I cried to you, when my heart was in trouble: you lifted me up on a rock you did guide me:
2From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3because you were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.
3For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
4I will dwell in your tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of your wings. Pause.
4I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
5For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them that fear your name.
5For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.
6You shall add days to the days of the king; [you shall lengthen] his years to all generations.
6Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.
7He shall endure for ever before God : which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?
7He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.
8So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
8So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
