Psalmorum 61

1 in finem in hymnis David exaudi Deus deprecationem meam intende orationi meae

[For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.] Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

2 a finibus terrae ad te clamavi dum anxiaretur cor meum in petra exaltasti me deduxisti me

From the most remote place of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 quia factus es spes mea turris fortitudinis a facie inimici

For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 inhabitabo in tabernaculo tuo in saecula protegar in velamento alarum tuarum diapsalma

I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

5 quoniam tu Deus meus exaudisti orationem meam dedisti hereditatem timentibus nomen tuum

For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6 dies super dies regis adicies annos eius usque in diem generationis et generationis

You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations.

7 permanet in aeternum in conspectu Dei misericordiam et veritatem quis requiret eius

He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

8 sic psalmum dicam nomini tuo in saeculum saeculi ut reddam vota mea de die in diem

So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows day after day.
