Psalms 61 — ULB

For the chief musician; on a stringed instrument. A psalm of David.

61Verse 1Hear my cry, God;
attend to my prayer.
^{Verse 2}From the ends of the earth will I call to you when my heart is faint;
lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
^{Verse 3}For you have been a refuge for me,
a strong tower from the enemy.
^{Verse 4}Let me live in your tabernacle forever!
Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings. Selah
^{Verse 5}For you, God, have heard my vows,
you have given me the inheritance of those who honor your name.
^{Verse 6}You will prolong the king's life;
his years will be like many generations.
^{Verse 7}He will remain before God forever.
^{Verse 8}I will sing praise to your name forever
so that I may perform my vows every day.
