Psalm 61 Text (WEB)

Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer. 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. For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy. I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah. For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations. He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him. So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily. For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthan. A Psalm by David.

Psalm 61 Text (Hebrew)
שמעה אלהים רנתי הקשיבה תפלתי׃ מקצה הארץ אליך אקרא בעטף לבי בצור־ירום ממני תנחני׃ כי־היית מחסה לי מגדל־עז מפני אויב׃ אגורה באהלך עולמים אחסה בסתר כנפיך סלה׃ כי־אתה אלהים שמעת לנדרי נתת ירשת יראי שמך׃ ימים על־ימי־מלך תוסיף שנותיו כמו־דר ודר׃ ישב עולם לפני אלהים חסד ואמת מן ינצרהו׃ כן אזמרה שמך לעד לשלמי נדרי יום יום׃

Psalm 61 Text (Latin)

In finem. In hymnis David. A finibus terræ ad te clamavi, dum anxiaretur cor meum ; in petra exaltasti me. Deduxisti me, quia factus es spes mea, turris fortitudinis a facie inimici. Inhabitabo in tabernaculo tuo in sæcula ; protegar in velamento alarum tuarum. Quoniam tu, Deus meus, exaudisti orationem meam ; dedisti hæreditatem timentibus nomen tuum. Dies super dies regis adjicies ; annos ejus usque in diem generationis et generationis : Permanet in æternum in conspectu Dei : misericordiam et veritatem ejus quis requiret ? Sic psalmum dicam nomini tuo in sæculum sæculi, ut reddam vota mea de die in diem.

Psalm 61 Text (KJV)

Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name. Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations. He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him. So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
