| 1 | TO THE OVERSEER. ON STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. BY DAVID. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer. | Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer; | For the director of music. With stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. | |
| 2 | I call to You from the end of the land, || In the feebleness of my heart, || You lead me into a rock higher than I. | from the end of the earth I call to you when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I, | From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. | |
| 3 | For You have been a refuge for me, || A tower of strength because of the enemy. | for you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy. | For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. | |
| 4 | I sojourn in Your tent for all ages, || I trust in the secret place of Your wings. Selah. | Let me dwell in your tent forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah | I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. | |
| 5 | For You, O God, have listened to my vows, || You have appointed the inheritance || Of those fearing Your Name. | For you, O God, have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. | For you, God, have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. | |
| 6 | You add days to the days of the king, || His years as generation and generation. | Prolong the life of the king; may his years endure to all generations! | Increase the days of the king’s life, his years for many generations. | |
| 7 | He dwells before God for all time, || Appoint kindness and truth—they keep him. | May he be enthroned forever before God; appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him! | May he be enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him. | |
| 8 | So I praise Your Name forever, || When I pay my vows day by day! | So will I ever sing praises to your name, as I perform my vows day after day. | Then I will ever sing in praise of your name and fulfill my vows day after day. | |
