1. To the chief Musician H5329 upon H5921 Neginah H5058 , A Psalm of David H1732 . Hear H8085 my cry H7440 , O God H430 ; attend unto H7181 my prayer H8605 .
|
|
2. Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer!
|
2. From the end H4480 H7097 of the earth H776 will I cry H7121 unto H413 thee , when my heart H3820 is overwhelmed H5848 : lead H5148 me to the rock H6697 that is higher H7311 than H4480 I.
|
|
3. From the brink of Sheol I call; my heart grows faint. Raise me up, set me on a rock,
|
3. For H3588 thou hast been H1961 a shelter H4268 for me, and a strong H5797 tower H4026 from H4480 H6440 the enemy H341 .
|
|
4. for you are my refuge, a tower of strength against the foe.
|
4. I will abide H1481 in thy tabernacle H168 forever H5769 : I will trust H2620 in the covert H5643 of thy wings H3671 . Selah H5542 .
|
|
5. Then I will ever dwell in your tent, take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah
|
5. For H3588 thou H859 , O God H430 , hast heard H8085 my vows H5088 : thou hast given H5414 me the heritage H3425 of those that fear H3373 thy name H8034 .
|
|
6. O God, when you accept my vows and hear the plea of those who revere your name in prayer:
|
6. Thou wilt prolong H3254 the king H4428 's life H3117 H5921 H3117 : and his years H8141 as H3644 many generations H1755 H1755 .
|
|
7. "Add to the days of the king's life; may his years be many generations;
|
7. He shall abide H3427 before H6440 God H430 forever H5769 : O prepare H4487 mercy H2617 and truth H571 , which may preserve H5341 him.
|
|
8. May he reign before God forever; may your love and fidelity preserve him"--
|
8. So H3651 will I sing praise H2167 unto thy name H8034 forever H5703 , that I may daily H3117 H3117 perform H7999 my vows H5088 .
|
|
9. Then I will sing your name forever, fulfill my vows day after day.
