61:1  For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David. Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

61:2  From the end of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

61:3  For you have been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

61:4  I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.

61:5  For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

61:6  You will prolong the king's life; His years shall be for generations.

61:7  He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

61:8  So I will sing praise to your name forever, That I may fulfill my vows daily.
