1Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer.

1To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. --By David. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.

1 Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer.

2From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

2From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost lead me.

2From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

3For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

3For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

4I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. [Selah

4I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place of Thy wings. Selah.

4I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. [Selah

5For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

5For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.

5For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

6Thou wilt prolong the king’s life; His years shall be as many generations.

6Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as generation and generation.

6Thou wilt prolong the king’s life; His years shall be as many generations.

7He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

7He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth appoint--they keep him.

7He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

8So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.

8So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by day!

8So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.
