1For the director of music. With stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.1For the choir director: on stringed instruments. Davidic. God, hear my cry; pay attention to my prayer.
2From 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.2I call to You from the ends of the earth when my heart is without strength. Lead me to a rock that is high above me,
3For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe.3for You have been a refuge for me, a strong tower in the face of the enemy.
4I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.4I will live in Your tent forever and take refuge under the shelter of Your wings. Selah
5For you, God, have heard my vows; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.5God, You have heard my vows; You have given a heritage to those who fear Your name.
6Increase the days of the king's life, his years for many generations.6Add days to the king's life; may his years span many generations.
7May he be enthroned in God's presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him.7May he sit enthroned before God forever; appoint faithful love and truth to guard him.
8Then I will ever sing in praise of your name and fulfill my vows day after day.8Then I will continually sing of Your name, fulfilling my vows day by day.
