61:1 [For the choir director; on a stringed instrument. A Psalm of David]. Hear my cry, O God; Give heed to my prayer. 61:2 From the end of the earth I call to Thee, when my heart is faint; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. 61:3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength against the enemy. 61:4 Let me dwell in Thy tent forever; Let me take refuge in the shelter of Thy wings. Selah. 61:5 For Thou hast heard my vows, O God; Thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those who fear Thy name. 61:6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life; His years will be as many generations. 61:7 He will abide before God forever; Appoint lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him. 61:8 So I will sing praise to Thy name forever, That I may pay my vows day by day. 61:9
