Psalms 61:1-6

61:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)

upon Neginah
<05058>_,

[A Psalm] of David
<01732>.>>

Hear
<08085> (8798)

my cry
<07440>_,

O God
<0430>_;

attend
<07181> (8685)

unto my prayer
<08605>_.

61:2

From the end
<07097>

of the earth
<0776>

will I cry
<07121> (8799)

unto thee, when my heart
<03820>

is overwhelmed
<05848> (8800)_:

lead
<05148> (8686)

me to the rock
<06697>

[that] is higher
<07311> (8799)

than I.

61:3

For thou hast been a shelter
<04268>

for me, [and] a strong
<05797>

tower
<04026>

from
<06440>

the enemy
<0341> (8802)_.

61:4

I will abide
<01481> (8799)

in thy tabernacle
<0168>

for ever
<05769>_:

I will trust
<02620> (8799)

in the covert
<05643>

of thy wings
<03671>_.

Selah
<05542>_.

{trust: or, make my refuge}

61:5

For thou, O God
<0430>_,

hast heard
<08085> (8804)

my vows
<05088>_:

thou hast given
<05414> (8804)

[me] the heritage
<03425>

of those that fear
<03373>

thy name
<08034>_.

61:6

Thou wilt prolong
<03254> (8686)

the king's
<04428>

life
<03117> <03117>_:

[and] his years
<08141>

as many
<01755>

generations
<01755>_.

{Thou...: Heb. Thou shalt add days to the days of the king} {as...: Heb. as generation and generation}
