Psalms 61

1

For the Chief Musician; on a stringed instrument. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer.

2

From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart 1 is overwhelmed: Lead me to 2 the rock that is higher than I. 1) Or fainteth 2) Or a rock that is too high for me

3

For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

4

I will dwell in thy 1 tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. Selah 1) Heb tent

5

For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast 1 given me the heritage of those that fear thy name. 1) Or given a heritage unto those etc

6

Thou wilt prolong the king's life; His years shall be as many generations.

7

He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

8

So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.
