61:1 | Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. |
61:2 | From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. |
61:3 | For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. |
61:4 | I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah |
61:5 | For you have heard my vows, O God; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. |
61:6 | Increase the days of the king's life, his years for many generations. |
61:7 | May he be enthroned in God's presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him. |
61:8 | Then will I ever sing praise to your name and fulfill my vows day after day. |
