1(61) For the end, among the Hymns of David. O God, listen to my petition; attend to my prayer.
1For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David. Hear my cry, God. Listen to 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, I will call to you 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 you have been a refuge for me, 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 dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.
5For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them that fear your name.
5For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
6You shall add days to the days of the king; [you shall lengthen] his years to all generations.
6You will prolong the king’s life. His years will be for generations.
7He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?
7He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
8So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows .
8So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
