Confidence in God’s Protection.

Psa 61:1

For the music director; on a stringed instrument. A Psalm of David.

Hear^H8085 my cry^H7440, God^H430;

Give^H7181 Your attention^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 against^H4480^H6440 the enemy^H340.

Psa 61:4

Let me [fn]dwell^H1481 in Your tent^H168 forever^H5769;

Let me take^H2620 refuge^H2620 in the shelter^H5643 of Your wings^H3671. Selah^H5542

Psa 61:5

For You have heard^H8085 my vows^H5088, God^H430;

You have given^H5414 me the inheritance^H3425 of those who fear^H3372 Your name^H8034.

Psa 61:6

You will [fn]prolong^H3254 the king’s^H4428 [fn]life^H3117;

His years^H8141 will be like generations^H1755.

Psa 61:7

He will [fn]sit^H3427 enthroned before^H6440 God^H430 forever^H5769;

Appoint^H4487 faithfulness^H2617 and truth^H571 that they may watch^H5341 over^H5341 him.

Psa 61:8

So^H3651 I will sing^H2167 praise^H2167 to Your name^H8034 forever^H5703,

That I may pay^H7999 my vows^H5088 day^H3117 by day^H3117.
