| 1. | {For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.} Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer. | To the chief music-maker. On a corded instrument. Of David. | Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. | ||
| 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. | Let my cry come to you, O God; let your ears be open to 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. | ||
| 3. | For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy. | From the end of the earth will I send up my cry to you, when my heart is overcome: take me to the rock which is over-high for me. | For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. | ||
| 4. | I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah. | For you have been my secret place, and my high tower from those who made war on me. | I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. | ||
| 5. | For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. | I will make your tent my resting-place for ever: I will keep myself under the cover of your wings. (Selah.) | For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name. | ||
| 6. | You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations. | For you, O God, have made answer to my prayers; you have given me the heritage of those who give honour to your name. | Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations. | ||
| 7. | He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him. | You will give the king long life; and make his years go on through the generations. | He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him. | ||
| 8. | So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily. | May the seat of his authority be before God for ever; may mercy and righteousness keep him safe. | So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows. | ||
