Psa 61:1
For the choir director. On a stringed instrument. Of David.
Hear H8085 my cry H7440 of lamentation H7440, O God H430;
Give H7181 heed H7181 to my prayer H8605.
Psa 61:2
From the end H7097 of the earth H776 I call H7121 to You when my heart H3820 is faint H5848;
Lead H5148 me to the rock H6697 that is H7311 higher H7311 than H4480 I.
Psa 61:3
For You have been H1961 a refuge H4268 for me,
A tower H4026 of strength H5797 before H4480 H6440 the enemy H340.
Psa 61:4
Let me sojourn H1481 in Your tent H168 forever H5769;
Let me take H2620 refuge H2620 in the shelter H5643 of Your wings H3671. [fn]Selah H5542.
Psa 61:5
For You, O God H430, have heard H8085 my vows H5088;
You have given H5414 me the inheritance H3425 of those who fear H3372 Your name H8034.
Psa 61:6
You will add H3254 days H3117 to the king’s H4428 [fn]life H3117;
His years H8141 will be from generation H1755 to H1755 generation H1755.
Psa 61:7
He will sit H3427 enthroned H3427 before H6440 God H430 forever H5769;
Appoint H4487 lovingkindness H2617 and truth H571 that they may guard H5341 him.
Psa 61:8
So H3651 I will sing H2167 praise H2167 to Your name H8034 forever H5703,
As I pay H7999 my vows H5088 day H3117 by day H3117.
